FYI - About a year ago, I called the Recorder's office to verify the cost. Spoke to 2 people who differed on the amount. I sent my money using the greater cost quoted just to be sure, only to have the money returned by the woman who heads the department who stated, in no uncertain terms, I needed to go to Des Moines for the info. I have since used an excellent local researcher who got me a copy of a will. I put on hold the birth, etc. records. good luck and let us know if you are successful please.
