US Vital Records

New Mexico Vital Records
Statewide vital records registration officially began in 1920, although there are some records as early as 1889. Births and deaths are now housed at the Bureau of Vital Records, while marriages have always been the responsibility of the county clerk.

New Mexico Department of Health, Bureau of Vital Records & Health Statistics, 1190 St. Francis Drive, P.O. Box 26110, Santa Fe, NM 87504-6110

For marriage records from early to present, write to the clerk of the county in question
