You might try for a Delayed or Special Certificate of Birth. My mother was born 1905 in Macon County, but got her delayed birth certificate in Adair County in 1953. The certificate is from the State Registrar of Vital Statistics in Jefferson City, MO. --- cminor <[email protected]> wrote: > The State has documents before, they just aren't on > line. > Try emailing them. > > You might also try asking the Adair County > Historical Society: > http://www.adrcohs.org/ > They will charge a small fee if they find > something. > > Claudia > > [email protected] wrote: > Hi Claudia, thank you for the information about > the court houses.

I checked the courthouse; nothing there. I will try all the other sources mentioned (after I finish painting the trim on the house). Thank you all for the very useful information. Lafonne J. Taylor

Look for Mid-wife certs. My Mom had one from Adair Co. and finally needed a birth cert. when she retired. The state sent her a birth cert. She was born on a farm just otside Novenger. --- Sandra Stanton <[email protected]> wrote: > You might try for a Delayed or Special Certificate > of > Birth.
