Some comments:
- Note that as of 2025-10-07 these are still not indexed at FamilySearch, which is why they are here.
- Note that column 15 may be useful to know when an adult first came to Marion County, Iowa.
- If a name or word could not be easily read, I enclosed the uncertain transcription with ?question? marks.
- For help with the meaning of the cause, you might find the Old Time Disease Names page helpful.
- If there is a link associated with the month of death, it is a Find a Grave memorial associated with the person.
- Note that of the comments above, the first two are not repeated on the pages below, but the next three are.
- Note that there a total of 17 pages in this data set. So far, only the first two pages have been transcribed thus far.
