Over 517,000 Early Vermont Vital Records Just Posted at FamilySearch.org!

Thousands of new records have just been added to the name index and images (index cards) of Vermont town clerk transcriptions of births, marriages and deaths, 1760-1954. This collection has been complete for years 1871-1908 for several months. However, just completed are the books containing names alphabetically from surname ‘A’ to partway through surname ‘Phelps’ for years ‘Early to 1870.’ As more data is received, the remaining year ranges will be incrementally updated.

Over 517,000 records have been added in the last two months – all for Vermont vital records BEFORE 1871.
