How to Find Birth Information in the United States: Difference between revisions

Please note the links to other Wiki articles about birth information at top of this page. Information about the time before the formation of the United States is included as it pertains to that portion of the North American Continent presently occupied by the United States. This article is intended to give you an overview of the types of U.S. records that may contain birth information but the information in this article is, by no means, exhaustive. You should always look to the "Vital Records" topics in each of the states for further information. Many records containing potential birth information also exist on a county, municipality, city, town, or even a village level. You should search all possible levels of documents.
