A marriage and divorce record can be found in a state's vital records which also include birth and death records.A centralized database of vital records, including those involving marriage and divorce, allow interested parties the opportunity to obtain, often online, copies or even certified copies of important identity documents. States make their vital records available to national and international health organizations interested in compiling marriage and divorce statistics.
Affirmative Action And Divorce Statistics Marriage and divorce statistics help advocacy groups document their arguments for affirmative action for various causes. The same marriage and divorce statistics, sorted in a different manner, give opposing groups arguments against such affirmative action. A single marriage and divorce record may be relevant to the individuals or families involved, but when combined on a state, national or international basis can identify interpretive trends.National organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) use marriage and divorce statistics to study the trends of marriage and divorce in the United States. A 2002 CDC study found that by the age of 30 three-quarters of American women had married and about half of those women had co-habited outside of marriage.
The CDC study concluded that unmarried co-habitation was generally less stable than marriage. Such studies, relying on marriage and divorce statistics, provide help in community planning and welfare reform by identifying community conditions involving marriage, family formations, separation, co-habitation and divorce.
Many background checks on people include a state-wide or national search of vital records, including marriage and divorce filings. A marriage and divorce record can have many useful purposes such as helping families with their genealogy compilations. Sometimes the only record of a marriage is the filing of a final divorce decree. Centralized databases have made the search for people and ancestors vastly more efficient than even a decade ago. Vital records such as marriage and divorce filings lend themselves to efficient sorting and quick compilations.
