SOME SHAFTSBURY, BENNINGTON CO., VERMONT BIRTHS, 1885. These records were
photocopied for me on a trip to Bennington Co., Vermont, in the Town Clerks
Office of Shaftsbury, back in 1976.  These are only the pages to which
referred to my ancestors, the HARRIS and CHURCH families.  At the time,
they photocopied a whole page if you wanted a printout of one of your
ancestors, so consequently, I got a page of 40+ different Births.  Some of
the writing is hard to read but I copied it as it looks.

Births Registered in the town of Shaftsbury for the year ending December
31, 1885.
