1880 Mortality Schedule for the year 1879
D thru G
Mortality Schedules were taken in Iowa in 1860-1870 & 1880. The household was asked if anyone died the "previous year"
There are many infant and children's deaths and this is almost the only way to find them at this early date.Transcribed by Gayle Kenniston
