OBTAINING VITAL RECORDS

In New Hampshire, birth, death and marriage records since 1640 may be obtained EITHER from the City or Town Clerk in the city or town where the event occurred, OR from the NH Bureau of Vital Records.

Please note that the State of NH did not require town clerks to send records to the Bureau until the early 1800's. You probably want to first check with the Merrimack NH town clerk to see what records they do maintain.

For more information about vital statistics in New Hampshire, see this page.
