Important note!  There are several families, including my own, that are listed in this transcription as born in NC. 
This is incorrect, the record should read UC, for Upper Canada. Immigration from Upper Canada, later known as Ontario, was 
common to Clayton County, IA. ~ contributed by Cheron Gibson-Frazier, March 2008.
