Birth Certificates and Death Certificates are handled by the County Health departments in each county. Death certificates may also be listed in document indexes in the Auditors Office. Records may also be available at the state level depending on the time frame of the record needed. Birth certificates are not public records in Washington; this means that the person making the request must be a member of the immediate family to receive the record. Obtaining a birth certificate requires the following information: the state, city and county where the birth occurred, the name as it appears on the certificate, the full date of birth, and the legal name of the parents identified on the birth certificate, including the mother's maiden name. Obtaining a death certificate requires the following information: the state, city and county where the death occurred, the name of the decedent as it appears on the death certificate, and the exact date of the death. Some counties or agencies may also require the decedent's social security number, the name of the funeral home and/or the name of the spouse or parents of the deceased.
Marriage license records are kept by the County Auditor in each county. For county auditors that are online, marriage records may be searched by either groom or bride name. For counties that are not online, requests must be made over the phone, in person or in writing. For these requests, a date or approximate date of marriage is required for the search.
Divorce records are found in the Superior Court for the county where the divorce occurred. Some county Superior Courts have online access to court files whereby a search may be made by name. The state also maintains a free index search where limited information is available.
