Iowa Death Records
To begin, add a death record or view a list of locations and resources for Iowa death records.
Death records in the state of Iowa date back all the way to 1880, which is a great thing for those doing any kind of genealogical or historical research. In addition, county records are available for perusal by the general public. Also, official copies of state records can be requested through the Iowa Department of Public Health, which offers certified copies to those who need recent death certificates.
Interestingly, while the county records are open to the public, the state records are not. That means that those doing research on people not directly in their family may have to visit different county clerks to get what they need. However, it may also be possible, and much more convenient, to use internet search sites like online public records finders to find Iowa death records easily.
