How to Find U.S. Birth, Marriage, and Death Records (& Substitutes) on the InternetGuest Presenter: Rae Lee Steinacker – Teaches Intermediate and Advanced Internet Research at the BYU Family History CenterVital records – records of births, marriages, and deaths – provide important information and clues, not only about the primary person in the record, but often about other family members. The exciting news is that more and more U.S. vital records are being indexed and placed on the internet each day. This saves family historians loads of time and money, and it also gives us access to records of family members we might not have known existed. This webinar will show you how to find free U.S. vital records databases on the local, state, regional, and national level, as well as point out secondary sources that provide clues to vitals. |
