| Scope: Series consists of a card index of births, deaths, marriages, and divorces recorded as part of the Vermont Vital Registry System. Act No. 63 of 1857 created the Vermont Vital Registry System, which required town clerks to compile lists of the vital events that occurred in their respective towns during the course of a year. These lists were then submitted to the Vermont Secretary of State on an annual basis. The original lists are bound by year and town (see PRA-242). Through Resolution No. 425 of 1908, the Secretary of State was authorized to create a card index for any records in the custody of the Secretary. | |
