In Old Fort Dodge

   Posted by: admin    in Uncategorized

This site will feature news articles from the early days of Fort Dodge and the surrounding area. It will give a glimpse into the lives of the people who lived here.

Each post will be posted on the day it was originally published, beginning March 1 with an article from 1904. I will attempt to recreate the format of the original articles, including spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Local history buffs and genealogists will find items of interest in these articles.
