Vital Registration Office, codified as the Section of Vital Statistics,
was created as a division of the West Virginia Department of Health in
1917. Before 1917, county clerks served as the sole local registrars and
custodians of birth, death, and marriage for those events that occurred in
their respective counties. It is likely that the official reporting and
recording of births, deaths, and marriages was mandated from the creation
of the state in 1863, as it was the law in Virginia (from which West
Virginia was created) beginning around 1852. However, due to the extreme
rural nature of the population and the lack of coherent collection
mechanisms, reporting was probably very "hit and miss" except around major
cities. From 1917 until 1921 it was not mandatory that county clerks
report births and deaths to the Vital Registration Office however most did
Even though mandatory reporting by counties began in 1921, the reporting
of births and deaths was still not considered adequate for inclusion in
national health statistics until 1925. |
