I am a volunteer responding to your ask for a will/s. In Iowa, before 1887 some probate cases were settled in circuit courts and from 1851 to 1868, some in county courts. You can write to the clerk of the district court for copies of wills, administrations, dockets, calendars, and other records. Here is the contact information link for the Jones County Clerk of Court: https://www.jonescountyiowa.gov/clerk_of_court/
The Jones County Genealogy Center is in the Anamosa Public Library and you may want to contact them to see if they have what you need on microfiche and what they charge for research on this and to get you a copy.
