Vital Records ~ Cemeteries ~ Obituaries

>>>New<<<
Reclaim the Records has uploaded new Birth Records for Missouri:
 Missouri Birth Index, 1920(ish)-2015
"They tried to charge us $1.5 million for a public records request.
Then they decided to ignore the state Sunshine Law altogether."

There were some Vital Record Indexes on the old Bollinger County Site:
They have, for the most part, been reformatted for easier searching.
If, for some reason an old email addy shows up, be advised that it will not work as the old files had not been updated for more than 10 years.
I wish to thank all the former Volunteers for their contributions.
