    • James Franklin Outwater (1915-2001) birth certificate

    New Jersey birth records date back to 1848, but full statewide registration did not begin until 1878. Earlier records can be found in town offices, church archives, and family documents.

    The New Jersey Department of Health manages birth certificates, with access restricted for 100 years. New Jersey, one of the original 13 colonies, has a diverse population stemming from early Dutch, Swedish, and British settlers. Its industrial growth in the 19th century attracted immigrants from Italy, Ireland, and Germany.
