Adair County Vital Statistic Records: Births, 1893-1894

The following information was transcribed from the five (microfilmed) pages of original Adair County birth records for 1893-1894. Each of the first four pages original pages have about 58 entries, and the fifth page has 33 entries. In this transcription, the original pages are designated by the header "[page x of original document]."

The header card  for the five microfilmed pages from which these transcriptions were done states the records are for 1893 & 1894, and each birth is noted as having occurred in one of those two years. The date handwritten at the top of each of the five pages, however, is 1895.

The order of information is as follows:

Name of child (a surname in brackets indicates it comes from the surname given for the father rather than written out as part of the child's name; or, in absence of that name, then the mother's surname);

Date of birth;

Gender;

Born dead or alive (noted only if born dead);

Place of birth (noted only if other than Adair County);

Fathers name & mother's maiden name;

Color of child (noted only if other than "white");

Birth place(s) & place of residence of parents (noted only if other than Adair Co.)

Underlining indicates transcribe words & names are as found in the original document; question marks indicate uncertain interpretation; bracketed italics indicates notes or information from other sources.

There are a few duplicated entries, some of which contain conflicting information. These have been combined as one entry with notation of where (on which page of the original document) the second one was found. Any conflicting information is also noted. An example of a combined entry: "Bryant, David P., May 16, 1894, male, J.L. Bryant & Mary J. Redman. [Also recorded on page three of the original document with June 27, 1894 given as date of birth.]"
