California Research Services I can provide copies of California birth & death certificates from 1905 - present. Please refer to the County Recorders page for the cost of the certificates you are requesting. For persons who were born, married, or who have died in Sacramento County, I can obtain those certificates on a walk in basis and normally provide a copy to you within two business days. For all other counties I must order them through the mail and delivery can be 2 weeks to 1 month depending on the county involved. All marriage certificates must be ordered from the County Recorder's office as the State vital records office does not have them. If the county the license was purchased from is known, I can order them for you. Certified or Informational Copy? If the requester is a spouse, sibling, child, parent or grandparent they are authorized a "certified" copy of the document; however, they must submit a notarized statement as to how they are related. All other requesters must order an "informational" copy which gives the same information as the certified copy, however it also has "Cannot Be Used For Identification Purposes" stamped on the document. I specialize in California Vital Record Research and routinely perform the following searches for clients:
