Research use: Records are arranged into family groups and clans. Records frequently give at least three generations. Information includes where families came from and new places of residence when families moved. The records are very valuable in compiling family groups. They have the same value as a census or a family history. Civil censuses have not been recommended for filming. It is, therefore, critical that these be acquired where possible. Some large cities do have the historical copies of this record. | |||
