Vital records, as
their name suggests, are connected
with central life events: birth,
marriage, and death. Maintained by
civil authorities, they are prime
sources of genealogical information;
but, unfortunately, official vital
records are available only for
relatively recent periods. These
records, despite their recent
creation in the United States, are
critically important in genealogical
research, often supplying details on
family members well back into the
nineteenth century.
