Vital Records |
|
The Vital Records Section of Bladen County Health Department ensures that all birth and death certificates for those persons who were born or died in Bladen County are filed according to Chapter 130-A of North Carolina General Statutes. The Health Director serves as the local registrar for all births, deaths, and fetal deaths occurring in Bladen County. The issuance of burial transit permits and disinterment/reinterment permits also fall under the jurisdiction of the local registrar. The deputy registrar processes the vital records received in the health department and forwards copies of all births and deaths which have occurred in Bladen County to the Bladen County Register of Deeds, where certified copies may be obtained. Contact Emily Williams, Deputy Registrar, at 910-862-6900, extension 4912, for more information on birth and death certificates or if a burial transit permit or disinterment/reinterment permit is needed.
