Des Moines Register Newspaper Subscription

The Iowa Star was founded in 1849 and was the first newspaper in Des Moines.

In 1855, the Iowa Citizen began publication, and was renamed in 1860 to the Iowa State Register. In 1902, the Register merged with a descendant of the Star called the Des Moines Leader so it then became the Des Moines Register and Leader. In 1903, Des Moines banker Gardner Cowles, Sr. purchased the Register and Leader; the name became The Des Moines Register in 1915.
