In Response To: Porterfield (Dennis Parrott)

The Keokuk County Historical Society has thousands of obits on file. Price for copies is very reasonable. They also have marriage listings and lots of other great info. They are located on the corner of Elm and East Streets in Sigourney, Iowa. They are open to the public two days each week (I think it is Wednesday & Thursday). Mailing address is Box 123, Sigourney, Iowa 52591. Phone 641-622-3005.

The following info was on the Family Search site. There are some spelling errors but I believe they are the same people.

Hope this helps.
