If your husband finds the records, I would be interested. My mother and father were both placed there during the late 1920's and early 1930's and stayed until they were 19. My guess is they are housed with the state. I remember working at the state historical society in Iowa City and saw something that led me to believe when it was closed, the records were turned over to them. I'm hoping I'm wrong though and they are housed somewhere in Davenport. Please let me know at [email protected]
