Official records of births and deaths occurring within the City limits of Wayne are on file in the City Clerk's Office. Certified copies of birth records are available to those so entitled by Michigan statue.
Also the State of Michigan Division for Vital Records has records of births, marriages, and deaths that occurred in Michigan and were filed with the state since 1867.  Michigan divorce records since 1897 are also available.  You can order a copy of a Michigan vital record online, using your credit card, or print out an application form to mail your request.
