My mother in law is said to have been born there, 1914. How would I get her birth certificate? I also need information about Banks and Heffley/Hefley families who are her ancestors. At varying times members of these families lived in VA, (Banks family, late 1700's-1800) SC (early Hefley's) TN (where they got together) and Arkansas. I'm especially interested in a death date for Becky aka Rebecca E. (nee Hefley) Banks living in the poor house in Shelby, TN 1930 and her son, Joseph Banks born either 1884 (1900 census) or 1886 (WWI draft card). Thanks
