The following file contains a listing of genealogical and historical
societies in Vermont.  Included in the listing, where known, are telephone
numbers and yearly dues.  This listing is donated to the public domain and
may be freely copied.  Under no conditions can this listing be sold or used
in any other commercial fashion.  If you think this list has any value, then
donate that value in helping your local genealogical society (or the National
Genealogical Society).
 
If you write to any of the societies on this list for information, remember
to include a self addressed stamped envelop (SASE).  Many of these societies
work with a limited budget, supplemented by volunteers, and can not afford to
respond unless a SASE is included in your letter.

                       VITAL RECORDS
 
Birth, Marriage, and Death Records To 1954
 
Town Records. Town clerks have kept birth, marriage, and death records since
1760. The records before 1800 are incomplete. The original records are in the
office of the town clerk, and copies have been sent to the state.
 
State Records. Many of the existing town records have been indexed
alphabetically for the entire state.
 
1760-1870 on 287 films
1871-1908 on 120 films
 
The Vital Records Office will search these indexes for a fee. This office
also has a third index to town records covering the period 1908 to 1954. For
