 Introduction

The records of Riverside Mercy Hospital, 1975 - 2001, were transferred for microfilming to the Center for Archival Collections, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio 43403, in April 2002, with the cooperation of Reverend Mr. Michael Pence of Riverside Mercy Hospital. The records on this roll of film were the only records they have. The rest of the records were lost according to the Chaplain.

The collection consists of baptisms*. Due to inconsistencies in pagination and transcription of data, researchers are encouraged to refer to all volumes within each series. (See order of microfilming for a detailed list of these records.)

This register and this collection was prepared by Rachel Diegel in April 2002.

*There is a seventy (70) year access restriction on baptism and marriage records. No restrictions apply to the remainder of this collection.
