County Boards are sponsored by IowaGenWeb

board and made it more difficult for users.
We encourage everyone to post to State
level board system which provides better local
control.
This new board system will display postings
like you are accustomed to seeing.
Click on the Board Link to the right to go
to the board you want.
You may add to the board, by using the "Post New Message"
link.
The various Boards are for specific information as indicated in the title of each
Board.

you are not quoting from copyrighted material. This is especially
important for Obituaries and Biographies. If in doubt, summarize or
paraphrase and quote sources for the work.
