Finding burial records in Warwick

  • Warwick city clerk. The city clerk's office can help with death records for people who died in Warwick, and statewide records are kept by the Rhode Island Department of Health's Center for Vital Records in Cranston. Recent records are usually restricted to close family; older ones are more widely available.
  • Cemetery records. Ask the city clerk about the town's historical cemetery list. Rhode Island numbers its historical cemeteries by town, and volunteers with the Rhode Island Historical Cemetery Commission record them.
  • Old town reports. Annual town reports often listed each year's deaths. Try the Warwick public library or the nearest library that keeps them.
  • Local historical society. Historical societies often hold gravestone transcriptions, cemetery surveys and family files. The Rhode Island Historical Society and the Rhode Island State Archives in Providence are good statewide sources.
  • Probate and land records. Rhode Island has no county government. Deeds (land evidence records) and wills and estates are kept by Warwick itself, at the city clerk's office and the town's probate court.
  • FamilySearch. The free FamilySearch site has indexed Rhode Island vital records and town records that can confirm a death date before you visit.
