Texas and Oklahoma Births, Deaths and Marriages from the Fort Worth Record: November, 1903 to November 1904 - Bruce Bumbalough. The Forth Worth Record started as a morning paper in 1903 in Fort Worth, Texas. The paper reported news from across Texas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma Territory, the nation, and the world. It provided coverage of the Russo-Japanese war, the presidential election of 1904, and the 1904 World's Fair, as well as extensive coverage of the railroads and their business activities, and much more. However, it is the vital statistics reported in the paper that are of particular interest to genealogists, and the abstracts herein are limited to births, deaths and marriages. Abstracts are arranged chronologically and surnames appear in capital letters as an aid to researchers. Birth records typically include: gender of the child, father's full name, and date of birth. Death records typically include: name of the deceased, date of death, and place of death. Some death records may also list the name of a relative, the cause of death and/or place of burial. Marriage records typically include: the full names of the bride and groom, date of marriage, and place of marriage. Some marriage records may also list the name of the official performing the ceremony and/or the name of the bride's father. A full name index adds to the value of this work. 2008, 8½x11, paper, index, 252 pp.
