Research nine North Central Iowa counties plus nearby area:

NCIGS Researchers do research in response to requests which can come in via postal delivery or by e-mail. Sources for their research are our extensive library, Mason City and Cerro Gordo county cemeteries, and the Cerro Gordo County courthouse. We also have conscientious members to search in some of the adjoining counties. Be sure to send complete information on names, dates, places and relationships, and indicate sources already searched so we will not duplicate your work.

Our current charges are $10.00 per hour research and report time plus copy charges and postage. Moneys received for research are used to recover our costs and add to our research resources. Please provide a mailing address with your request. We will need to have $10.00 up front, then we will proceed and whatever is needed for hours worked and copying etc.  will be requested.  There should only be two requests per page.
