This collection is a compilation of birth, marriage, and death information from the islands of Guam and Yap. They were assembled into family groupings by anthropologist Jane Hainline Underwood. It includes records for the years 1897-2000. The records are written on index cards which are likely to contain an individual's name, gender, and birth date. They may also list the names of spouses, children, parents, and death dates if applicable. | This collection is a compilation of birth, marriage, and death information from the islands of Guam and Yap.

While the information on the Population Cards is in English, the names of the individuals are mostly of Spanish origin. Sex is usually represented by a gender symbol, rather than stating male or female. The original records are located in the Richard Flores Taitano Micronesia Area Research Center at the University of Guam in Mangilao. | While the information on the Population Cards is in English, the names of the individuals are mostly of Spanish origin.
