Massachusetts birth records are kept by state governments. Massachusetts has its own birth record database, which can be accessed online. The online databases are searchable by name, date of birth, and place of birth. Massachusetts also provide information about birth parents and authorized guardians, as well as the child’s birth weight and head circumference.
To access a Massachusetts birth record database, visit the website of the Massachusetts health department. You can also search the databases using the keywords “birth record” or “birth certificate.”
The Massachusetts birth record databases are updated regularly, usually once a month. However, the information may be outdated or incomplete, so it is important to confirm the information you find with the Massachusetts health department.
