I hope that someone on the list may be able to help
me with information
regarding my Great Grandfather Henry Marshall
Carpenter.
Henry Marshall Carpenter's death certificate states
that he was born
Dec. 21, 1869 in Wisconsin. It gives his Father's
names as H.B.
Carpenter born in New York. How would one go about
finding out what the
H. and B. stand for? Would a marriage certificate
for Henry Marshall
Carpenter give the names of his parents?
Also, could anyone tell me what year it became
mandatory to register a
birth, marriage or death in the United States.
With thanks
