Hi Shannon You do not need to know the mother's name to order the birth certificate. You only need the quarter and the reference, which is Volume 2b, page 512. Have you ordered from the website before? You can go to http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/ and follow the instructions there. Hope this helps and you find out who her mother was Regards Margaret > > I am trying to decipher which one of two women were my great grandmothers > birth mother.
