HAMILTON COUNTY, IOWA EARLY BIRTHS "R" Book 1 - 1880-1896
Copyright 2003 by Janelle Martin
HAMILTON COUNTY, IOWA BIRTH ABSTRACTS
Transcriber's Note: Many of the pages were difficult to read. Occupations were not transcribed, nor were attendants. Occasionally family members were listed as attendants. Some births recorded were not listed on the index. A few births occurred in Webster, Hardin, or Wright counties. It is best to view the actual record to get your own interpretation and possibly more information. If a birth is not recorded here, it does not mean it didn't occur. Many births were not recorded. Where the date of birth is not listed, I put the date of Return. I purposely alphabetized the births by the father's surname so that all families are shown together for comparison of information provided. The original records are held at the Hamilton County Courthouse, Webster City, Iowa 50595.
