== Vermont Vital Records == | |||
Vital records were first kept in Vermont from the earliest permanent settlement, about 1760. All original records are maintained by the town or city and can be viewed at the town or city clerk’s office. The present vital registration law was enacted in 1857. This statute required that all vital events be recorded in the town where they occurred. A centralized registration system was established in 1919. | Vital records were first kept in Vermont from the earliest permanent settlement, about 1760.
