I'm not related to this family.
FYI -
All census records prior to the 1850 census only listed the head of household; whether male or female.
NO specific age was stated for any family member
NO place of birth was stated – country or state
NO marital relationship was stated – single, married, widowed, divorced
NO family relationship was stated – brother, sister, cousin, son, daughter, wife
NO occupation was stated
NO parental birthplaces are stated
MS Vital Records -
The MS Vital Records division was enacted into law in 1917, but we maintain records as far back as 1912, so the legal requirement may be similarly earlier.
GA Vital Records -
When did the state start collecting vital records?
The state vital records office maintains birth and death records filed from 1919 to the present. Marriage applications and licenses from 1952-1996 are also on file. No divorce records are on file at the state office, however, an index of divorce events from 1952 to the present is available. Some counties may have older birth, death, marriage, or divorce records in their files, but county files only contain records of vital events that occurred in that county.
