Hi, The Following should be of help: Depending on the time frame you are researching. You may be able to obtain at least some of the registrations through the Provincial Archive - Rather than Vital Stats [ thus saving you a few $'s]. http://archives.gnb.ca/Archives/EN/default.aspx Search Births Online to 1907 - at: http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/GovRecs/RS141A5/Default-e.aspx?PageLoad=SearchForm NB.Cemeteries: http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/NBCemeteries/Default-e.aspx?PageLoad=SearchForm Marriages: http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/GovRecs/RS141B7/Default-e.aspx?PageLoad=SearchForm There may be Volunteers at the Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness Site - who may be able to help.search Public Record - births,marriages deaths released as Public Record from Vital Stats to the Archive: http://www.raogk.org/newbrunswick.htm The following from the National Archive of Canada site: <Snip> New Brunswick In New Brunswick, birth records from 1888 to 1905, marriage and death records from 1888 to 1950, and some incomplete church and civil records prior to 1888 are in the custody of the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick, P.O. Box 6000, FREDERICTON, N.B., E3B 5H1. Some on-line databases are available on their Internet web site. Birth records after 1905, and marriage and death records after 1950 are still in the custody of the Vital Statistics Office, Health and Community Services, P.O. Box 6000, FREDERICTON, N.B., E3B 5H1. For official certificates of births, marriages and deaths from 1888 to the present, contact the Vital Statistics Office. <snip> VITAL STATS- NEW BRUNSWICK: http://www.gnb.ca/0051/0379/index-e.asp http://www.gnb.ca/0379/certificates-e.asp ********REMEMBER THAT YOU ALWAYS WANT TO REQUEST THE LONG FORM - REGISTRATION******* The Certificate [short form] is a basic extract of information from the Registration. The Certificate is good for proof of an event / I.D. - but of little use in family research. The Registration contains all information required at the time of the event. Death Regs. depend greatly on the knowledge of the informant for accuracy. Hope this will be of some help. Happy New Year 2003.
