Birth records [for Richmond City], 1878-1953; indexes, ca. 1870-1949

Poznámky

The Commissioner of the revenue registered births for the county and then turned the books over to the clerk of the county court. The clerk made abstracts to send to the state auditor and would also preserve the books in his office.

Birth certificates give the name of child, date of birth, race, parents, county where born and the attanding phisician. Baptism certificates give the name, date of birth, parents, and county where born. Delayed births gave the same information as a regular birth certificates. Birth records are filed in chronological by year and are alphabetical with in the year. Letters from schools and others stating birthdates of students also gave as much information as possible.

Includes general index (on cards). (Most of the cards for births after 1919 were lost.).
