--WebTV-Mail-4662-102 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Hi Sue, I have had that problem around that time frame as well; it doesn't necessarily mean she wasn't born there. I'm not sure what year reporting the birth became mandatory, but if there was no Dr present, most likely it wasn't. Have you tried looking at church records and censu records?

My grandmother was thought to have been born in Malone in 1889. I am trying to verify this. According to these three sources apparently she wasn't born there. I'm suspecting she was born in Canada as an older sister was. My question to the listers is -- how do you request a birth certificate from Canada? Does anyone know? Thank you for any ideas.
