Early Terry County Birth Records


Transcribed and Compiled by Shirley & James Webb
from Terry County Courthouse Records

The records below appear in Books 1 (to June 1917) & 2 (June 1917- 1918)

of the Terry County Birth Records at the Terry County Courthouse in Brownfield, Texas.   

The first birth recorded was on June 15, 1904.   Many of the first listings had no name for the child –

just the gender was listed.   If a corrected record was attached, we used that information.

 

Names are shown as they appeared on the birth record.  We have not attempted to correct spelling of names but
will be glad to hear from family members who have knowledge of what is accurate.    Write the
Terry County TXGenWeb Coordinator with that information (see note at the end of this page). 
(However, this will not correct the name on the courthouse birth records.  For information on how an official
correction can be made, contact the Terry County Clerk - see note at the end of this page.)
