Births 1880


 

Town Clerk's Report

 

To the Selectmen and Citizens of Natick:

I have nothing especially new to suggest in this report. If the requests heretofore made by me in former reports are fully carried out I doubt not our records relating to vital statistics will be as full and complete as we can reasonably expect. I will only add that on the 26th day February, 1880, the Legislature enacted a law, making it the duty of every physician and midwife in the several cities and towns in this State to report on or before the fifth day of each month to the Clerk of the city or town, a correct list of births of children born during the previous month at which they were present. Since the first of March, 1880, and prior to January 1, 1881, while this law was in operation, there were born in our town one hundred and seventy-three children; but only ninety-nine of them were reported to my office under that act, leaving seventy-four (74) violations of the requirements of the act. It is hoped that hereafter all upon whom the responsibility rests will do what they can to insure a full, complete and accurate registration, not only under that act but all acts now in force relating the subject matter.
