Excerpt from Instructions of the Secretary of State to Town and City Clerks, Registrars, and Others, Relating to the Registration of Births, Marriages, and Deaths: Embracing the Laws of the Commonwealth on the Subject The insertion of the information required, under some of these headings, and especially under 8 and 9, as to births, as well as the same information in regard to marriages and deaths, is for the purpose of rendering the identification of the individ ual more easy. There are many persons bearing the same name, in the same town or city - there may be very many John Smiths, John Browns, or others of common names, and, unless their specific occupations, places of residence, and other circumstances are given, it would be difficult, and perhaps impossible, to distinguish which were intended. The resi dence may also be interesting, in a statistical view, to show whether, in one particular locality, or among one particular class of the population in towns and cities, as has sometimes been found to be the case, the proportion of births is very much greater or less than in another.
