    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/UW.2ADI/2055 Message Board Post: Hi subscribers..... Some of you may already know me. I am the state contact for the CAGenExchange, and the mail list administrator. I have watched as our mail list has grown, and I am excited to see the number of folks joining our ranks. Please feel free to look through the entire site and, if you live in CA, or have access to information for CA, we could sure use your help. When you are researching a certain county and there is no coordinator, we would love to have you contact us with information from your local phone books or other sources available to you in your area. My commitment is that this GenExchange Project be one of the top projects on the web. It is entirely dedicated to free raw data and is here for you to use and explore. Living in any of the counties and having access to a local phone book, even for just one city, can make the difference in someone's research somewhere in the world. Please know that you can never be sure what you might contribute that might make a brick wall crumble for someone. It's amazing what a little generosity can do for others. We need the addresses of local cemeteries, funeral homes, libraries and archives (including university archives), museums, genealogical associations, historical associations and societies, churches in your communities, historians, courthouses, monuments and other historical sites, newspapers, schools, etc. If you would like to adopt a county for which you have access to records and raw data, I would be happy to send you the County Coordinators guidelines. If not, know that you can become an invaluable assistant to the project by entering information from your local phonebook or records you may have. Please help me help you in your research endeavors and let's join together to create an outstanding project for others to do their research. Any comments and contributions will be graciously accepted.

    3. First question, do you need a certified copy, or is an informational copy sufficient? Same price, but if you need a certified copy you will need to go thru many more hoops. The form necessary can be found at http://www.dhs.ca.gov/publications/forms/pdf/vs112.pdf I would not request the death certificate from the state, the county is faster San Mateo County Recorder 555 County Center, 1st Floor Redwood City, CA 94063-1665 http://www.co.sanmateo.ca.us/smc/frameset/0,,14094288_14099386,00.html?fpURL =http://www.smcare.org/records/birth.asp#top (a two line address states) Death Certificates Purchase a certified copy of a birth or death certificate in person at the County Clerk-Recorder's office at 555 County Center, First Floor, Redwood City, CA 94063-1665. Payment types accepted in the office are cash, checks, and credit or debit cards (Visa and Mastercard only). Application Mailed requests for certified copies of birth and death certificates must be accompanied by a notarized application. (Application form will require the Adobe Acrobat Reader which may be downloaded for free here.) Mail the application with the required payment in a check or money order only (payable against a USA bank) to the above address - Attn Vital Records. Make checks payable to San Mateo County Clerk-Recorder. Expect the certified copy by return mail in five to 10 working days, 7 to 14 working days if outisde the U.S. Certificates from the years 1865 to 1965 may require an additional one to two days for processing. The certificate may be shipped overnight at the applicant's expense. Please include a prepaid return express envelope or airbill with your request.
