The site, http://www.state.sd.us/doh/vitalrec/birthrecords/index.cfm contains information such as file number, name on the record, date of birth, county of birth, mother's and father's names, file date. Individuals can search the site by any of the items individually, or can complete many of the items to look for a specific record. At this time the site contains 74,000 records which were filed after the Vital Records system was established in 1905. We'll be updating the site on a yearly basis as a new year's worth of birth records become eligible. We hope to use this model to put additional records on line from the state archives. Consumers can now order certified copies of South Dakota birth, death, marriage, and divorce records over the Internet using a credit card, but there are charges for each record search and a service fee. Hope this helps anyone who might end up searching for records in South Dakota.
