23-11 Discontinuance of Ledger Book Forms
8/2/2023



ā€‹This All-County Letter (ACL) rescinds ACL 05-02, dated January 31, 2005, ACL 07-01, dated January 8, 2007 and ACL 07-21, dated November 21, 2007.ā€‹



ā€‹As there is no statutory authority pertaining to ledger book records, forms VS 60 ā€“ Ledger Book Record of California Marriage, VS 61 ā€“ Ledger Book Record of California Birth, and VS 110 ā€“ Ledger Book Record of California Death are not valid and should no longer be used. 


Records of events predating July 1905 are not maintained by the State Registrar. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code (HSC) 102370, counties that have records existing prior to July 1905 are retained as special county records. Therefore, because special county records exist solely as county records, it is at the discretion of each county on how to issue certified copies of records predating July 1905 that are not maintained by the state registrar. 


The VS140e Forms Request has been updated to reflect this change. 


If there are any questions regarding this information, please contact the CDPH-VR, Quality Assurance and Production Section at (916) 552-8116.


Sincerely,
