South Dakota was created in 1889, from Dakota Territory.In July 1905 South Dakota started its vital records system. Individuals who were born before they started the system were given the opportunity to file their records with the system. There are many records from the 1800's to the early 1900s that have been filed with the system, but they are not complete. There is a [http://apps.sd.gov/PH14Over100BirthRec/index.aspx South Dakota birth index] site which indexes the birth records that have been filed with them but the births must be at least 100 years old. The earliest birth year they search is 1843. Each organized county is a registration district for vital records. <br> | South Dakota was created in 1889, from Dakota Territory.In July 1905 South Dakota started its vital records system.
