Peru, Massachusetts Vital Records to 1850. Originally published in 1902 by the New England Historical and Genealogical Society this item is assumed to be in the public domain and has been reproduced here. Browse through the Birth, Marriage, and Death Vital Records. Be sure to take a look at the abbreviation key and source information. Another big thank-you is extended to Claire Smith for providing this transcription to the site!

I have also been advised that the Congregational Church records (1780-1870) have been filmed by the Family History Library for the Town of Peru.
