Vital Records of Billerica, Massachusetts
Vital Records of Billerica, Massachusetts: to the End of the Year 1850
The following records of births, marriages and deaths include all entries
to be found in the books of record kept by the town clerks; in the church
records; in the Middlesex County Records; in the cemetery inscriptions; and in
private records found in family Bibles, etc. These records are printed in a
condensed form in which every essential particular has been preserved. In all
records the original spelling is followed. The various spellings of a name
should be examined, as items about the same family or individual may be found
under different spellings. Marriages are printed under the names of both
parties. When a marriage appears without the intention recorded it is
designated with an asterisk. There are no intentions of marriages recorded in
Billerica.
Additional information which does not appear in the original text of an item,
i.e., any explanation, query, inference, or difference shown in other entries
of the record, is bracketed. Parentheses are used only when they occur in the
original text or to separate clauses found there — such as the birthplace of
parents in late marriage records.
When places other than Billerica and Massachusetts are named in the original
records they are given in the printed copy.
