Note: Most newspapers will not help with genealogical research, but recent obituaries and articles pertaining to the history of the community are often archived on their Web sites. Researchers should also consider writing a 'letter to the editor'. Someone who reads the paper might be able to answer your questions. Many Iowa newspapers have been microfilmed and are available at local libraries and at the State Historical Society of Iowa libraries.
