A great resource at the Jefferson Library is the Greene County digital archives where you can search county-wide newspapers back to the 1860s; also cemetery indexes and birth, marriage and death records.

The GCGS reference library in the basement of the Jefferson Public Library does not have regular open hours during the off season (winter), however a volunteer is usually present for a while on Wednesday afternoons.  You can call the public library at 515-386-2935 and they would be glad to help you or would transfer the call to the genealogy volunteer if she is here.
