Kentucky began keeping civil birth records as early as 1852. However, it was only required for ten years. Other attempts at birth registration ranged from 1874-1879 and 1892-1910. This collection from the Kentucky Department of Libraries and Archives does not list all births in Kentucky from 1852-1910. Information in the records can include the name, gender, color/race, date and place of birth, parents' names, and the age and birthplace of the parents.
