Austin County, Texas Births
The files in these birth pages were carefully copied from the index of births at the Austin County Courthouse. For copies of the actual birth certificates, contact the county clerk's office. Our thanks to the Austin County Historical Society and employees at the Austin County Courthouse for their financial and physical assistance with this project. The chart shows births from 1860 to 1940. (Births from 1931 to 1940 were added in 2012.
Births 1926-1934
Registration of birth was not required until about 1903, and often births were not registered before or after that date.
Another issue is that frequently registration of records was delayed or records were amended, but both records were kept.
If no parents are shown, it is probably because of a delayed registration for purpose of proof of birth date, and was probably filed after 1940.
Keep in mind that the birth records were handwritten and hard to read, when indexed. Sometimes the index record cut off the names in unusual places,
such as "Elizabe" These spellings were kept because sometimes parents created various ending such as Elizabell.
Sometimes there are multiple variations of the same name. It was not our purpose to correct or edit information provided other than our own mistakes,
but we sometimes added a "See also..." which was not in the index. We apologize for our own errors, but are proud of the material
that we are presenting for free public access.
Tip: Look throughout sections of common names, such as 'Brown', for those listed as "NOT NAMED."
