Michigan Early Births Submission

This Form Is For Adding Records to
Early Michigan Births Database

Search Records By Name  |  Search Records By County | Add Your Records

This form is not for entering "queries" when you are not sure of the birth date of your ancestor.  It is for entering births that you have proof of through various sources. Sources such as County Birth Records, State of Michigan Birth Records, Death Record, Baptismal or Christening Certificate, Obituaries, Newspaper Birth Announcements, Military Records or Pensions, Bible records, etc.  A census does give a full birth date and are not considered reliable.

All fields marked in RED are required.  The form will not submit until they are filled out properly. Click on the for help.

Form Help

Surname: Last name entry must be at least 3 letters long and should only contain letters or a '.  Form

Given: This must also be filled out with at least 3 letters.  Form

Middle: Enter a middle name or initial here if applicable, but it is not necessary.  Form

Birth Date: Write out the birth date using full month names and not numbers so it is clear what the month and day are.  This is required and must be before 1906 to protect the identity of the living that is so endangered today.  If a person is deceased and their date of birth was after 1906, please note it in the field marked Source or Notes. Form

County: Pick a county for your record from the drop down list.  If you do not know the county your homework on this person is not done, and the record will not be accepted.  Form

Submitter:  This is where your name goes.  At least 3 letters are required here. Form

E-Mail: Your e-mail address so others can contact you who are searching your family, also.  Form

Source or Notes: Required! Please answer respectfully the question - Where did you get this record from?  County birth record, State birth record, baptismal or christening record, marriage record, military service record, newspaper birth announcement, etc. A census is not a reliable source for records and does not give the full birthday for all but the 1900 census.  There is a limit on this area of 255 characters, so just state the basics.  Form
