Search Births - By Last Name

This page allows you to search by last name (exactly as it appears in the original record) to find birth entries relating to Armenians in North America.

An important feature of the birth certificates is that they usually provide the maiden name of the mother. Many also list the place of birth of the parents. In many of those cases, the birth place is simply stated as Armenia or Turkey. However, occasionally a more specific place of birth is given. Sometimes, this is the only remaining record showing a specific birth place for one of the parents. And some places, like the province of Ontario, Canada, list the date and place of the parents' marriage. For Mexico, the administrative division of municipality (municipio) is equivalent to county in USA and Canada.

This database table currently represents just a few of the communities in North America where Armenian immigrants can be found. The records abstracted are those where the images of the birth registers or the certificates themselves are available online. As more of these images become available, and as time permits, I will continue to expand the scope of this coverage. Volunteers are graciously providing assistance in transcribing records from other Armenian settlement communities.

Names on the birth certificates were sometimes variable in spelling. Many are phonetic equivalents to the original Armenian names. You should also view the query "By Last Name (Std.)" to look up a birth certificate by all spelling variations for a last name.
