Catherine:

Yes, there were ferries that transported folks across the river. I've attached some general information linked sources for you that address early transportation . . .

And this one has info on early Irish settlers in Iowa:

Keep looking under the rocks by doing last name searches . . . you may find more gems than scraps!

Good Luck!
