Staff serve individuals and families to whom a vital event occurred in Georgia.
Inquires are received by telephone, mail, fax, and in person. Fees are charged for certified copies of vital records and services. Certified copies of Vital Records are available from 1919 for births and deaths, from 1952 for marriages and divorces. Resident-specific birth data is placed in Health District files on the Vital Records LAN for modem access by health district program and planning staff. Data is available on magnetic tape of floppy disks but the database is not accessible by modem.
