Hi, About birth certificates, I wanted to pass on a caution. I saw one come through before Thought I would add to it. I have been transcribung these books of births, and several times there is no date, if a couple have 4 children the parents names can be spelled different on each one. or one lists the mothers maiden name the next her married name. Some have even had 2 the first one then a corrected one. some are recorded up to 6 months after the birth. Janie my Shasta website http://www.freeyellow.com/members6/famos/cemetery.html
