The law required every commissioner of revenue to make an annual registration of births and deaths in his district at the same time personal property subject to taxation was ascertained. The commissioner was to record births and deaths that occurred prior to December 31 of the preceding year and return the record to the clerk of court by June 1. Information was obtained from heads of family, physicians, surgeons or coroners, and the law imposed penalties for failing to furnish or collect the information. The clerk of court in each locality was directed to enter the information supplied by the commissioner into registers. A copy of each register was forwarded to the Virginia Auditor of Public Accounts. The law went into effect on July 1,1853, and continued until 1896, when an economy-conscious legislature repealed the recording provisions. NOTE: not all deaths were recorded during the period 1853-1896. NOTE: the Library of Virginia does not have death records for the period 1896- 1912. Information found on death registers changed little between 1853 and 1896. Death registers contain the name of the deceased; the race and sex; the date and place of death; notations regarding slaves and the names of slave owners; name of the disease or cause of death; age at death (years, months and days); place of birth; occupation; marital status; name of parents of the deceased; name of person giving the information; and description of the informant (whether a physician, consort, head of the family or friend). It is not unusual to find information missing from the records. If an infant had not yet been named at the time of death, the entry would record only the surname or note "Smith, Infant." The terms "Unnamed," "No name," and "Not named" are also used. Only the given name of a slave is recorded. Only the month appears for the date of death in some instances. The names of parents of the deceased are frequently omitted or unreliable since the person giving the information may not have known the names. Causes of death frequently are not known.” Albemarle County (1853-1887) Reel 1 http://ajax.lva.lib.va.us/F/?func=file&file_name=find-b-clas29&local_base=CLAS29 Death Death Birth Name Date Place Cause
