Finding burial records in Swanton
- Swanton town clerk. The town clerk's office can help with death records for people who died in Swanton, and statewide records are kept by the Vermont Department of Health's statewide vital records registry (births and deaths from 1909 on). Recent records are usually restricted to close family; older ones are more widely available.
- Cemetery records. Ask the town clerk who keeps lot maps and burial lists. Many Vermont towns have cemetery commissioners, and the town clerk's vault often holds cemetery and church records.
- Old town reports. Annual town reports often listed each year's deaths. Try the Swanton public library or the nearest library that keeps them.
- Local historical society. Historical societies often hold gravestone transcriptions, cemetery surveys and family files. The Vermont Historical Society and the Vermont State Archives and Records Administration (VSARA) in Middlesex are good statewide sources.
- Probate and land records. Wills and estates are handled by the Probate Division of the Vermont Superior Court in Franklin County. Before 2011 the county may have had more than one probate district, so check which district covered Swanton. Deeds are kept by the town clerk, not the county.
- FamilySearch. The free FamilySearch site has indexed Vermont vital records and town records that can confirm a death date before you visit.
