I'm try to trace-down the military records of a Civil War ancester that died at Gettysburg. Doe's anyone happen to know where Coalfield or Kolona, Iowa once existed? My great-grandfather was born in Coalfield in 1876. He was later married in Kolona in 1900. If I can locate his birth certificate or marriage certificate, it would make my search a lot easier. Thanks.

Looking for the husband of "Belle or Bell." She was either the wife of former Lieutenant Governor Frank Campbell, or Newton lawyer and Newspaperman Angus Campbell. Angus lived most of his life in Newton, Jasper County, and Frank later moved to Des Moines (I think) I need to know who she married and a citation including page numbers and such. I am having a diary published on Angus and Frank's brother who was in the 5th Iowa Infantry during the Civil War. Any help you could lend would be most appreciated.

Looking for Elias HOOVER who was living in Knoxville in 1864 with wife Molly and newborn son, yet unnamed on 14 FEB 1864; however son's name was MILES ROWLAND HOOVER. I have letter written by Elias to his father in OH relating how he was joining the 3rd Iowa Cavalry, being sworn in in the morning and would be stationed in ARK. After this letter, Elias was "lost"; however his son, Miles, was still living in Knoxville in 1875. Would like to know if Elias was a casualty of the war; or, any info appreciated.
