William F. Joyce was the registrar of births in the tenth precinct of Bullitt County during the period from 1911-1922. Recently his original birth register book was donated to the Bullitt County History Museum.
The tenth precinct was known as the Knobs and/or Griffin precinct. It was located in northwestern Bullitt County, bordering on Jefferson County.
The chart below lists all of the births recorded in Mr. Joyce's register. They are listed in alphabetical order with the child's name followed by the father and mother's names, and then the child's date of birth.
Images of the original certificates from this book are available at the History Museum. Besides the information shown below, these certificates usually include both the father and mother's residence, race, age at their last birthday, their birthplace, and occupation. Also given is the number of child of this mother, and the number of children of this mother then living. Also given in most cases is the name of the doctor who attended the birth.
