Midwife's Records, 1816-1828 Montgomery County

Midwife's Records, 1816-1828 Montgomery County In the Unger Collection of the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania are three sheets, with birth records entered on both sides, indexed as shown in the title above, and shelved, in photocopy, with other material relating to Montgomery County. The call number is Mo/ 11A. The information is recorded in seven columns, written across the length of each page. Each sheet measures 12,/, by 8 inches, and the group was probably removed from a ledger. The handwriting is of good quality and presents few problems of legibility, though in the later pages it becomes less consistent, and there appear to be additions in another hand. In several instances, the spelling seems to be phonetic. It is recommended that interested persons refer to the photocopy in the Society for possible variant readings. The material is presented here as in the original, except that in order to print it across the shorter dimension of the page, the "Paid" column has been omitted, as have the last names of the children in the final column, and the few mentions of distinguishing physical characteristics of the children after their parents' names. It will be noted that in most cases the children's names are not given.
