Gretchen Nordyke
Box 6c. Name of Hospital...
Code: 6
BHO
Box 6c. Name of Hospital...
Code: 5
According to these codes:
Nordyke = 6, which is not a code in the manual. This tells me either (a) the code book is NOT the book used for making notations on a BC, but rather for the punch card, (b) the numbers in the margin belong to another BC (opposite page in the binder) but that is hard to believe as those numbers don't line up with the right side of the same BC.

I think the other page is the second half of the BC. It is where all the birth statistics ( such as weight, height, etc. ) were recorded. After all,that data was used for health statistics and had to be recorded somewhere. The most obvious place would be a second page of the BC because the Division of Vital Statistics would pull the BC to record their information. There is an explanation of the fields here:

As I stated before, there is an entire page of statistics that we cannot see, just to the left of the Birth Certificate. The numbers you are talking about are on that page. Until we can see that page, and it is doubtful we ever will, there is no way of knowing what those numbers mean. The numbers are not in the boxes you are trying to link them to.
