Records of births (baptisms), marriages, and deaths are commonly called "vital records" because critical events in a person's life are recorded in them. Church records are vital records made by priests. They are often referred to as parish registers or church books. They include records of births, christenings, marriages, and burials. Church records may also contain other information, lists, or documents. | Records of births (baptisms), marriages, and deaths are commonly called "vital records" because critical events in a person's life are recorded in them.
