Looking for Iowa Obit/Death Notices for my Gr. Grandma Alvira Elizabeth (Mansfield) Dawson (1864?-1932) in The Telegraph-Herald and Times-Journal - Dec 20 1932. Both Iowa newspapers. Thanks in advance.

Are you sure the last name and location are correct?
Is this the person you are referring too? All the given info matches, except last name and location.

Yes, she was Mrs. Greenwood when she died because her 2nd husband was a Greenwood. Her 1st husband David Bennett Dawson, died in 1902, leaving her a Widow for a few years. There seems to have been family relations in Iowa as well, so I could use the Iowa clippings just to examine.
