This section has been dedicated to my ancestors who lived and worked in the
State of Iowa from 1850 to 1930. Included are the friends, relatives and
co-workers with a description of the towns and cities they lived in.
The railroads of Iowa are also included in this section because of their
relationship with my family and the historical significance of the expansion of
not only Iowa but the United States during this period of time.
