New Hampshire Birth Records

Every person has a birth record, or at least, it is ideal that every person has a birth record. This is because birth records are the best proof that a person exists in the eyes of the law. Certainly, a person could show up in front of a magistrate and claim to be someone, but without a birth record to present, his claim would be taken with a grain of salt, unless, of course, he was famous enough that the magistrate could recognize him. Generally, however, a birth record of some kind should be presented. Thus, it is easy to see why birth records such as the New Hampshire Birth Records are considered important and why there are people who are always looking for them.

Birth records are public records, and while that classification would generally make them available to the general public, birth records are also considered to be vital records, hence, there is a limitation on the people who could be issued with them. This is because birth records could be used to facilitate crimes such as identity theft and others that would potentially cause innocent people to be dragged into trouble. Birth records could also be faked by a skilled person and could give an escaped convict or other criminal a new identity and escape his liabilities to the general public.

In New Hampshire, the state entity that is in charge of collecting, keeping, and maintaining birth records is the Division of Vital Records, part of the New Hampshire Department of State. This particular division issues all kinds of vital records and not only birth records. The division keeps records as far back as the year 1631, but there may be some problems when requesting for such records from so long ago that it is generally advisable that when searching for old birth records, the best place to search would be the state archives.

Now, requesting for birth records at the Division of Vital Records is generally a simple affair, albeit a long one. The first step would be to download the relevant form from the website of the division and to fill the same up. Once it is completed, the requested should have the same notarized before making a money order to correspond to the required fee and attaching the same to the application form. The required fee is fifteen dollars for the first copy, plus another ten dollars for every additional copy ordered at the same time. The requester should also submit a copy of any government issued identification card, front and back, with the signature of the requester visible on the copies. Once all this is completed, the final step would be to send everything via mail to the department for processing.
It is possible to search for birth records online using online databases. These databases are easy to find and even easier to use, and though most are not affiliated with the government, they do provide the same information as the government offices and divisions. They, however, provide this information in a faster and more efficient manner. Some of these websites do not charge anything at all for their services, and because they are conducted using the internet, the search could be done from the home of the searcher without the need to fall in line.
