Frank J - Received your response to my inquiry and greatly appreciate the information. Would it be correct on my part to assume that BIRTH CERTIFICATES also start about 1854 for Chatham County (Savannah) Georgia? If not, could you please advise me as to the earliest date for which Birth Certificates are available in Chatham County. Your cooperation and assistance are once again greatly appreciated. Robert D.
