Vital Statistics

Vital Statistics. That sort of sums up everything, doesn't it? Here's where you'll find records of births and deaths, wills, corporation records, and just about any kind of miscellaneous record you can think of. Needless to say, it's another favorite haunt of genealogists.

In addition to viewing these records, you can also buy copies of the ones you need. Certified copies are $5.00 each.

Birth and death records begin in 1853. To get a copy, you'll need:

  • For a birth record: birth date and the person's name at birth
  • For a death record: date of death and the person's name at death

If the event (Birth, Death, or Marriage) occurred in another county in West Virginia, click here.  This is a listing of where to write or call to find the right information you need.

We're open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and we look forward to helping you. Stop by Room 201 or call us at (304) 424-1845. If you're mailing a request, send it to:
