 *'''''Clues to other records:''''' There are clues in censuses regarding immigration, naturalization, and occupation that can lead to other records.
 *'''''Finding families:''''' Starting in 1850, all members of the household were listed in the census. By 1880, relationship to the head of household was added.
-*'''Birth information:''' Statewide registration of births began in 1920 in New Mexico with general compliance by 1930. A helpful substitute record to find birth information is a death record. However, date and place of birth on a death record is considered secondary information, as it was not recorded at the time of the birth event. The birth information should be corroborated with other [[Substitute Records For United States Birth Information|substitute records]] to improve accuracy.
-*'''Finding Parents:''' County registration of deaths was required in 1907 and statewide registration began in 1920. They often will list the parents of the deceased and their birth information. [[How to Find United States Death Records|Search New Mexico death records]]
