Found on 30 May 1997 in the front of a Death Record Book in the County Court House at Dover.
There were twelve loose Birth Records and one loose Death Record. The Death Record Book
had only about eighty names from dated 1881-1882 taking up only three pages.
I did not copy those as I was more interested in preserving the loose records. The remainder of the book was blank.
