Spotted this yesterday on the APG list and thought others would be interested. I know I'm counting the days!
Hi Everybody. Here is an update for those with an interest in Chicago area vital records.
I talked to a spokesperson today at the Cook County Clerk's office. Their project to make vital records available for online purchase is continuing. The vital records (for genealogical purposes only) are still expected to go online this year. The estimated date for going live is June or July, 2008. The website for access to the records is being designed and programmed now. The fees for genealogical requests will remain $15.00. The dates of records available for genealogical purposes will not change.
