Where to Write for Vital Records: Births, Deaths, Marriages, & Divorces (2007)

Provides information about individual vital records maintained only on file in State or local vital statistics offices. An official certificate of every birth, death, marriage, & divorce should be on file in the locality where the event occurred. The Fed. Gov¿t. does not maintain files or indexes of these records. These records are filed permanently either in a State vital statistics office or in a city, county, or other local office. This directory lists each state in alphabetical order with the information for the appropriate offices that keep these records. It also provides instructions on how to write an office to receive a copy of an official record.Leonard, Barry is the author of 'Where to Write for Vital Records: Births, Deaths, Marriages, & Divorces (2007)', published 2007 under ISBN 9781422314821 and ISBN 1422314820.
