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.
