Barbour County Births

Barbour County Births
A Collection

We began this Births file with data collected from many sources by Fred Knapp and Diana Taylor. We invite you to contribute birth information from your research. It may come from family record such as Bible records, public records, newspaper vital statistics -- birth, marriage and obituary notices, articles or family histories.

Can you add to our birth list? We welcome additions and corrections to this data.

The purpose of this listing is to help you find information on Barbour County families. Remember that these are compiled records and that you should try to obtain original proof to document any that you add to your family research. This collection is presented for your personal use and is not to be used by anyone for commercial publication.

Note: We have used current names and boundaries for the locations. Remember that before 1863 WV was VA and that before the creation of Barbour County in 1843 the area in question was Lewis, Harrison or Randolph County.
