That isn't quite right.  Earlier vital records do exist for several areas in
South Carolina.  The earlier vital records were maintained by local governements
rather than the State government.  The South Carolina Vital Records Office has
not collected the existing pre-1915 vital records for addition to the State's
vital records database.  

But, these pre-1915 vital records can still be found at various locations around
the State.  For more details and information about where they can be found see
