EXPLANATIONS THE Vital Records of the Town of Halifax. Massachusetts, to the end of the year 1849 are found in five different volumes of the town records. The first three volumes were also used for records of town meetings and other miscellaneous entries, the vital records being scattered through the books according to the convenience of the various town clerks who entered them. The fourth volume is a small quarto book containing vital records only, and the "Register" is the large folio for recording births, marriages and deaths which was issued to all cities and towns by the Commonwealth in 1844.
The following pages contain a literal copy of every record of a Birth, Intention (or Publishment) of Marriage, Marriage and Death found in the first four volumes, and of every record in the "Register" to the end of the year 1849.
