I don't know about you folks, but a lot of my research is in California. This is
sometimes the only way I can get information that I need.
Please read the information below.
2a. CALIFORNIA BIRTH AND DEATH RECORDS. The California Senate is now
considering legislation that would reduce the information available in
that state's birth and death record indexes, which would render them
significantly less useful and/or limit their use and access by
genealogical researchers. That which to date has been available as a
matter of law, would be unavailable as a matter of law, except by
restricted access through a limited index in California County Clerks'
offices.
If you are concerned about the loss of access to these vital records and
that such legislation, if passed, might mean other states would follow
suit, please see:
