[[ | [[Iowa]] court records have been kept since 1827. The names of many Iowa residents are listed in civil court records, where information exists about [[Iowa Land and Property|property]] disputes, divorce, [[Iowa Probate Records|estate settlements]] and other disputes. These courts also handled criminal matters. Court order books and case files may list a person's age, residence, occupation, and family relationships. Sometimes friends and neighbors gave depositions as witnesses of events that occurred. | ||
