History

A vital statistics branch was established by the Alberta government in 1905 to keep official records of the births, marriages, and deaths in the province. Originally part of the Department of Agriculture, it later came under the Provincial Health Officer, 1907-1914, the Registrar General, 1915-1917, Municipal Affairs, 1918-1919, and the Department of Public Health, 1919-1971. In 1971 it became a division of the Department of Health and Social Development. Vital statistics were recorded in local registration districts including those of Bellevue, Passburg and Coleman in the Crowsnest Pass.
