<p class="MsoNormal">Just thought I would check in and make sure
the transition to the new address for the list was working.
It appears to work correctly on my end but perhaps if I got a
few responses back I would feel more assured that we are still
functioning properly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To make it more worthwhile for you to read
the message I thought I would share with you some updates from
the Archives.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are still not open to the public but are
beginning to work on the process of re-opening. It will
likely be a phased process with a variety of changes to
protect the health and safety of both staff and the
researchers. Stayed tuned, but in the meantime please use the
online options if you would like to request copies of any
records.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I also want to let you know that we now
have the early vital records that had previously been held by
the Center for Health Statistics. These include:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Birth Certificates from June
1903-1915<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Marriage Returns from 1911-1945<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Divorce returns from 1925-1945<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Delayed Birth records from 1903-1918<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The records are being scanned and will
eventually be available on Ancestry and FamilySearch but as
you can imagine the indexing of these records will take some
time. If you would like to request records from the
Reference Desk please use the form found here. <o:p></o:p></p>
