All information is copied as is and I am 95% certain names are correct. As in any records, it is advisable to examine these records yourself. I have also alphabetized the list. The father's name was used where no name was given. The Register is divided into two parts, (1)Births and (2)Stillbirth's. There were a few entries in the Stillbirth's section of the book, p. 119, and I suspect they were combined. There were some entries duplicated into another birth register which has been copied into the crbirth.txt file. This book contains the birth date and place, and child birth order; nationality, age and location of both parents. - Joe L.
