Please note that some of these names were very hard to read, and I transcribed the data to the best of my ability.
Also, errors may have been made by the person who originally wrote some of this data.

Many times, where it says baby, infant, child, girl, or boy after the first name, it appeared to me that it was
the baby or infant of the person listed that died, with no name of the child given. In other places, it said 
Baby of, or Infant of, which made it more clear.

Cause of death, religion & occupation will be supplied upon request.
