Early Birth Records for Decatur County

These registered births are on record at the Decatur County Clerk of the District Court in Oberlin.

These were all hand written and very hard to read. There are questionable dates along with wording that can not be deciphered. We have worked hard to transcribe them as accurately as possible. Keep in mind that NOT ALL births were registered, and be sure to check for alternative spellings.

Because of the hand writing in Book B it is almost impossible to accurately re-create. If you have a surname, date of birth, father's or mother's name we will do a look for you. The dates in Book B start January of 1894 and go through June of 1910.

Other information that is given on the records include: Date of Return, Sex of Child, Number of child for this Mother, Race or Color, Place of Birth, Nationality of Father and his Place of Birth, Nationality of Mother and her Place of Birth, Residence of Mother, Occupation of Father, Name and Address of Medical Attendant, Name and Address of Person making certificate, and Returned by. To get a copy of the complete record you can write to the Clerk of the District Court 194 S. Penn, Oberlin, KS, 67749, be sure to include Book and page number when writing, or email me and from the copies I have can provide you with the additional information.
