Vital Records of Tamworth and Albany, New Hampshire, 1887-2003

$39.00

A valuable, but time-consuming, source of information for events occurring after 1886 is the section of vital statistics which is provided in the Annual Town Reports of many New Hampshire towns. Families that have remained in Tamworth and Albany or adjacent towns for several generations can be traced and connected to the present. This work is divided into births, marriages and deaths, and each section is arranged alphabetically. To the extent the information is available, the birth entries contain the child's name; date and place of birth; number of children in the family; father's name, place of birth, age and occupation; and mother's maiden name, age, and place of birth. Marriage entries include (as available): groom's name and residence; bride's name and residence; date and place of marriage. Information pertaining to husband and wife is listed individually and includes: age, occupation, number of marriage (if other than first); father's name, place of birth and occupation; and mother's name, place of birth and occupation. A separate alphabetical listing of brides allows for cross-referencing. The list of deaths contains the name of the decedent, place and date of death, age at death, cause of death, marital status, birthplace, father's name and place of birth, and mother's name and place of birth. There are several years prior to 1893 during which Albany failed to publish the vital statistics as part of the annual report.
