An individual may search Death and Marriage records at no charge. Due
to limited space, genealogists will be allowed to work in the office on
a first-come, first-serve basis. A time limit may be necessary due to
various circumstances.Birth records for genealogy are only available when the birth
occurred 100 years ago, or more, to any applicant. A birth record that
is less than 100 years old can only be obtained by an heir-with proof of
death.
Only certified copies of records can be purchased.
