About this document
A family record book (livret de famille) is an official booklet handed over by the civil registrar, notably in France, when a couple marries or when their first child is born. It gathers extracts of the family's civil status records: the spouses' marriage certificate, the children's birth certificates and, where relevant, death certificates. It is updated as events occur, such as a birth, a divorce or a death, and each extract bears the stamp and signature of the registrar who filled it in.
