Births between 1863 to 1930
Index and certificates available

There is a free online index and digital images of birth records on FamilySearch.org:

Another version of this index is on the West Virginia Division of Culture and History.

TIPS: If you can’t find your individual, try the following:


 * Because most of the state copies of the records from 1917 to 1921 were destroyed in a fire, it is best to request vital records through 1921 from the county clerk.
 * If you did not get results, type in less information about the person. Try only search for the first and last name of the person.
 * If you have too many hits, try adding information including approximate birth date and the county
 * Try a different index. Different indexes use different search parameters and your ancestor may be located in one but not the other.
