About

The Genealogical Society of Linn County, Iowa, was organized in 1965 under the name Linn County Heritage Society with sixteen members. In 1994, with a membership of over 300, the name was changed to better reflect the aims and goals of the Society: promoting an interest in genealogy, preserving Linn County records of cemeteries, churches, schools, courthouse documents, maps, family histories, and maintaining a genealogical library.
