Introduction[edit | edit source]

Archives collect and preserve original documents of organizations such as churches or governments. Libraries generally collect published sources such as books, maps, and microfilm.
If you plan to visit a repository, contact them and ask for information about their collection, hours, services, and fees. Ask if they require you to have a reader’s ticket (a paper indicating you are a responsible researcher) to view the records, and ask how to obtain one.
Although the records you need may be in an archive or library, the FamilySearch Library may have microfilmed and/or digitized copies of them.

Regional and Municipal Archives[edit | edit source]

The provincial archives are located in the capital of each of the 12 provinces.
Municipal archives exist for most large towns. They contain the same type of genealogical records found in the state archives.
The FamilySearch Library has microfilmed many records from these archives.
Each archive collects records from its respective province. Records of genealogical value at these archives include:

Church records.
Civil registrations.
Population registers.
Censuses.
Court records.

Military records.
Emigration lists.
Notarial records.
Land records.
Tax records.
