An update on the release and quality of the PA Birth and Death Documentation.. [View all]

PaHR Access:

We received a notice today from FamilySearch that the PA Archives is trying to communicate with the Health Department regarding the quality of the microfilms vs the originals. The letter states that there is a microfilm copy in use by the Health Department to fulfill copy requests. The quality of the filming is to be considered further and FamilySearch may be digitizing the originals for the state archive. Stay tuned.

This could be good news that FamilySearch is looking to digitize the originals.
