New Jersey Death Records

New Jersey is a north-eastern state that has a long history and has recorded much vital data, including death records. New Jersey has maintained that vital records are not public, so you can’t search for them online, but you can search by mail. Just keep in mind that you must prove that you’re a family member of the deceased by producing identification if you require a certified copy of the death certificate. You may request a genealogical search for a death that took place over forty years ago, but the restrictions on both new and old records are the same. However, if the death record you need took place before 1901, anyone can obtain a copy without restrictions. Certified copies of New Jersey death records are provided with the state seal and are necessary for legal purposes such as immigration or proof that you were related to the person. You’ll need to complete a form for the request and send it with the required information (including copies of identification) to:

New Jersey Dept. of Health
New Jersey Vital Statistics and Registration Bureau
P.O. Box 370
Trenton, NJ 08625

You may have to wait for twelve to fourteen weeks for a response from the New Jersey Department of Health. Death records in New Jersey have been recorded in some counties since 1878.
