Story County, Iowa Index to
Will Books

This index was created by Paul and Lois Heins for the Story County Chapter of the Iowa Genealogical Society. The Story County Chapter has given me permission to make this index available on the Internet.

The indexed Will Books are 1 through 18. Of particular interest is that for most of the wills the date of death is included. As with all transcribed material, errors may have occurred in the transcription or in the original material.

The following data is in the index:

• Last Name. This is the name that can be searched on.
• First Name
• Middle Name
• Other. This is usually an alias or prefix.
• Death Date
• Book. The number of the will book.
• Page. The page in the will book where the will is found.

The following changes were made by me:

• The date format was changed from yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mmm-yyyy.
• For consistency, some nicknames or aliases listed under the First or Middle Name were moved to Other where they normally occur.

Should you locate a will for which you would like a copy, you may write to:

Clerk of Court
