Important information:

The contents of "Allamakee County, Iowa Burial Grounds 1845-1988 ", by Dale P. Woodmansee, have been made available on this web site with the permission of Mrs. Woodmansee. We thank her for her generosity. Transcription of the Woodmansee book, which is over 900 pages, was completed through the efforts of a team of volunteer transcribers & proof-readers: Kay Brumbaugh, Dorothy Buck, Linda Earnheart, Sharyl Ferrall, Sue Kenyon, Donna Kumpf, Gayle Little, Nancy McClain, Jan Miller, Candy Nelson, JoLynne Bockman and Roxanne Barth. This was a huge undertaking and we thank them for the time and effort that was involved.
