- Names are listed here as they appear in the
original record. There were a few 1884 and 1885
records among the 1887 records, and have been
abstracted in the same order.
- Spelling of names has been retained as found
in the original file. If searching for a name,
you may have more success by trying alternate
spellings.
- Legibility of any document is often questionable
and open to interpretation. For that reason, we
encourage searchers to consult the source material
themselves whenever possible.
