Expand/CollapseSCOPE AND CONTENTS

Dates listed are those on which a birth or death was filed with the city. The actual births and deaths usually occurred several days before that date, but the records include cases where the birth or death was weeks, months, and, in several cases, many years before. Examples are a 1900 birth found among the 1938 births; a 1904 birth among the 1937 births; and a 1915 death among the 1937 deaths.

The records for 1908-1940 are bound in volumes; those for 1941-June 1953 are loose certificates. Indexes exist for many, but not all, of the volumes. Two volumes appear to be missing: Birth certificates, August 9, 1912-September 30, 1913 and Birth certificates, March 4, 1923-January 1, 1924; and death certificates, June 28, 1922-April 1, 1923.
