Morgan Co., KY Vital Statistics: Deaths 1852-1859 Volume IV The death records found in the following pages represent Vital Statistics data kept by the County between 1852-1910. Though many years are missing primarily 1862-1873, this data remains an important genealogical and historical record for Morgan Co., KY. The deaths are arranged in alphabetical order according to year of death. Below each name is the name of the Father and the Mother when this information was given. The third column represents the age of the victim at the time of death. Abbreviations used in this column include: h-hour, d-day, w-week, and m-month. If no letter follows the number, then the age is to be assumed in years. The fourth column, marked 'sex', refers to: M-Male and F-Female. The condition, or fifth column refers to: S-Single, M-Married, and W-Widow or widower. The next three columns represent the place or residence of the deceased, where the deceased was born (parents included in Vol. V), and where the deceased was at the time of death. The final column is of general interest. This column gives the cause of death. I would like to add at this time that the cause of death was transcribed as accurately as possible, including the misspellings. We tried very hard not to read into the handwriting, therefore the disease-diptheria, may show up as dypthera, dipthera, or diphtery. In some cases, we were unable to establish what the cause of death was but spelled the cause as closely as possible. KY-Kentucky Counties: KY-Kentucky Cities (Morgan Co.): Bth-Bath Co.
