- All effort will be taken to avoid posting information concerning living persons. Such information will be posted as an exception rather than as the norm.
- The following guidance applies to Vital Records:
- Records of births during the last 70 years will not be posted.
- Records of marriages during the last 50 years will not be posted.
- Records of deaths for any year may be posted.
- Records of divorces during the last 70 years will not be posted.
- Obituaries naming surviving family members may be posted if personal information concerning those family members is excluded. An example of personal information would be the street address of a surviving family member.
- The Social Security Account Number, or any other number assigned to a living person, will never be posted.
- The military record of any living person will not be posted without their approval.
- Cemetery or tombstone records which name a living spouse or family member need not be altered before posting.
- Contributions containing information about living persons may be posted with their consent.
- Any record which has been posted containing information about a living person will be removed immediately upon the request of the person named in the record.
