Yes -- the towns issue the "short form" certificate, which is a half-page sized form with minimal information. I have gotten some towns to add the parents' name on request. They had to type it on the bottom, 'cause there's no place on the form for that information. The certificates issued by the state are the complete record. But those are next to impossible to get for the past several decades under their current rules. Gary ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
