Are Announced In the south the records of births and deaths were not tequired by law to be kept The exception to this rule would be in those localities where the Chuich of England was the established state church, which was the case in a few localities along the Atlantic coast. The ministers of these colonies made a record of baptisms, ma triages and burials in the parish register the same as in England. A very large part of the colonists were dissenteis and had nothing to do with the established church and when the chi vas divorced from the government the minister made a record o A just as he felt inclined There was no uniform method adopted to care for these records and many were lost. The state historical societies are perhaps the best informed organizations now as to whether any such records exist in their respective states They are very uncertain sources. and revere .unifying and desirable What are your hopes? u Happenings At KliTON Family bibles and family cemeteries are the principal sources of recorded information regarding births and deaths. The family bible with pagegi between the old and the new Testaments for recording births, deaths, and marriages, was the cherished possession of the families able to afford this treasure. It was the family heritage and in it were recoided the family records. Biides were customarily presented with a bible in which entry had been made of the earlier generations. With the generations succeeding the Civil War the fam- i'.y bible has almost ceased to be. In the last 30 or 40 years laws have been passed in the various states of the south requiring the registration of births and deaths and these records are available to the public usually in the office of the state department of health. The earlier settlers buried their dead in family graveyards. These were usuully located near some trees and often out in the middle of a field. The church cemeteiy was a later development. Very many of the farms where were located the family graveyards, have passed into thethands of strangers If the graves have not alieady been plowed under by the modern farmerr with hia tractor they are in nearly all cases in a sad state of neglect. The headstones are no longer standing and the marks and inscriptions are vanishing. Marriage bonds were required by law, in some of the older states, for marriages not performed by the established church. A young man who wished to marry had to find some one with property who would go with him and sign a bond for five hundred or a thousand dollars, guaranteeing that there was no impediment to this marriage. This resulted in many common law marriages without the formalities of the law or the established church, and the recording by this church of the births as being bastards. Many of them were not such at all but were born of parents who lived in bonafide wedlock but who could not afford the fees demanded, or were dissenters and did not care to conform to what they thought were unnecessary' requirements. In most all the counties of the south there is a record of marriage licenses, well indexed and well preserved though they are often stored where It is quite inconvenient to examine them. The original land grants were recorded by the state, usually by ihe secretary of state. There was no law requiring later deeds to be recorded apd many of them were never recorded, the original deed being kept by the owner. So it is not always possible to go to the public records and find ail the owners of a piece of land. , The original wills were filed with the county court and a copy was made so it is possible to refer to all wills. In many of the states tlie old records such as wills, marriage bonds, deeds, and other records are being collected and placed in the archives at the state capital for safety. They are usually Indexed and are available to the public for research. This makes it very convenient for the genealogist who need not travel a!l over the state for records which are Shat are your failures? Do you in producing that ays succeed mrltu(lou contribution.
