      ** The CD's with the '*' means words can be searched for using the 'Find' command within Acrobat Reader. While it is not 100% searchable, probably 95% of the words are. If you do not find a word, type part of the word and try it.
      There will be others in the future as I am trying to acquire and scan all the Iowa county histories prior to 1920. A word about my desire to make these available to all at a reasonable cost. Many hours have been spent finding, scanning, cleaning up the scanned image and formatting the county histories. The price is very reasonable compared to the money and time spent making these available.
     I would ask you to please not make copies for your friends or others. Help me break even. :-)

Price Each: $19.95
