Registro Civil de Callao, Peru
 
== Record Description  ==
 
This collection will include records from 1874-1993.
 
This collection consists of digital images of original civil registration records of births, marriages, and deaths from the Provincia Constitucional, or Callao, in Peru.
 
The registration of births, marriages, and deaths in Peru documents the civil status of the residents.  
 
Earlier records are all handwritten in a narrative format. The later records are also handwritten but on a printed format. The text of the records is in Spanish. Some of their text may also vary slightly.
 
Before the government instituted civil registration in Peru, the Catholic Church was the only institution tracking the births, marriages, and deaths of the population. In 1852, during the Republican Era, the government instituted civil registration. This was first done by political authorities, such as prefecture, subprefecture, and state. In 1856, this responsibility was given to municipalities. Currently, civil registration is in the hands of RENIEC, which delegates the registration process to municipal registrars.
