| About the Register of Deeds office: The Iowa County Register of Deeds has a staff of two deputies. When Dixie became register of deeds in 1997, she implemented a computerized tract index and imaging system. Back scanning and indexing are done as time allows with a goal of capturing real estate records and document images from 1990 forward. The vital records indexes, including births, deaths, marriages for grooms and marriages for brides, are all computerized and available on public computers and computer printouts. Genealogists appreciate the user-friendly methods of accessing these records. |
