Usage Tips

(from website, January 2015)

In Idaho, registration of births wasn’t required until 1907, though some births were recorded at a local level. In July 1911 the state Bureau of Vital Records assumed responsibility for maintaining records from all over the state.
This collection is an index to live and stillborn Idaho births beginning in 1861 [with images of birth certificates for earlier records]. The number of records available will increase as dates get later. Details recorded in this index can include:

  • name
  • certificate year and number
  • city and county of birth
  • date and time of birth
  • father’s name, age, and birthplace
  • mother’s name, age, and birthplace
