Parents Be Sure To Record the Birth of Your Child With Given Name in Full

To prove legitimacy
To show when child has the right to enter school
To show when the child has the right to seek employment under the child labor law.
To establish the right of inheritance to property
To establish liability to military duty, as well as exemption therefrom To establish age and citizenship in order to vote
53
TOWN OF NORWELL
To qualify to hold title to, and to buy or sell real estate
To prove the age at which the marriage contract may be entered into To prove age to determine validity of a contract entered into by an alleged minor
To prove age for Old Age Assistance
To prove age so as to have the right to take Civil Service Examinations
Your Co-operation to the End That All Births May Be Properly Recorded Will Be Greatly Appreciated
