Transcribed from Missouri State Archives Microfilm #C 546 by Shirley Soper
Note: These records were extremely hard to read. The writing, in most cases, was almost illegible & the spelling very bad. In at least 2 instances, the person was buried before they died. The records back then were very sloppy, no guarantees are made as to spelling, etc.
