Death certificates usually give birth date and place, death date and place, name of spouse, names of the person's parents, burial place, and residence. After mid-July, 1897, they also give the birth place of the person's father and mother. | The Family History Library has microfilm copies of the Registrations of Births, ca. 1852 to 1907 (on 160 Family History Library films beginning with film [http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=filmhitlist&columns=*%2C0%2C0&filmno=1306420 1306420]) and the Registration of Deaths, ca. 1862–1907 (on 68 films beginning with film [http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titlefilmnotes&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=147746&disp=Registration+of+deaths++ 1310171]).
