*there is also a town named
Clayton in Pottawattamie co. - because this business directory
did not specify counties, it is the responsibility of each
researcher to determine the proper geographical location
**the ad clearly shows this surname spelled Delzer, although in
the business directory the name was spelled Pelzer
*** surname may be Surson, it was difficult to read

gazetteer : embracing descriptive and historical
sketches of counties, cities, towns and villages, which
