Recently I have had a ton of requests for info from adoptees who could have had their original birth certificates had they known. I think the Law was changed about 1996?

So IF your adoption was FINAL by Jan 1, 1964 you are entitled to your original birth certificate. The OBC has lots of information on it so it might be the one document that can assist with your search for your birth family.

It will have The address the birth mother lived when you were born, what state she was born in, her age, her marital status, whether or not she had children before you were born.....and with this info you can always check with the Library of the city of your birth to see who was living at that address in the year of your birth. If she was young its probably gonna be her parents home. This will give you their names to search for and if they are deceased an obituary will let you know if she was married at their death and where she is living at that time.

So if you need your original birth certificate......send me an email and I will send you an affidavit to COPY and FILL OUT your portion according to their directions and MAIL it to the address on the bottom of the form.

I hope this helps lots of adoptees who think they are never gonna find their birth mother/father/family.

Blessings
Mackie
