The Researchers Notes


Many times I will be doing some research and I come across a surname which seems to just stick in my
mind. And I always try to jot something down. Do not know why, I guess that it has just become a habit
since I started getting serious about doing genenalogy.

The many resources that I use for my research at this time are the Waterloo Court House archives, library
of the Northeast Iowa Genealogy Society, and the Waterloo Public Library. On occasion there may be
something from the Waterloo Courier as well.

The information below is just kinda a mix of notes and hopefully the following pages will be presented
in a more structured manner. But if you would see how I have my notes jotted down you would under-
stand! *GIGGLE*. Unfortunetely they are not well documented either and will try to improve this situation when further researching.
