Travel Log: #10—Day 4
(note this post is part of a series of posts of my recent research trip to Des Moines, Iowa with my Dad)
After breakfast I print out new research agendas and then we head to the Iowa State Historical Society where we research until 12:30. After lunch we research until closing time at 4:30 pm. Next we head back to the home of Sarah Ann Roberts and the home of Hugh Thomas Roberts where I snap a few pictures.
Best find of the day was the death certificate of Joseph Jones which lists his mother’s maiden name!!!!
We also got copies of 6 death certificates and several obituaries.
Organized my information and came up with a plan of attack for tomorrow!
This morning Dad purchased a roll of quarters for copies. Great idea!
Wow, this seems like a ridiculously productive trip!
