The State of Tennessee only allows the general public to view the original birth certificates for the years 1908-1912. The law that requires the counties to record births expired for the year 1913, so the counties were not required to record births for that year. The birth certificates for the years 1914-the present are only available through the Tennessee Vital Records Office. Anyone can request a copy of a birth certificate for this time frame, however, the Vital Records Office will require that you explain your relationship to the person in question and you will have to supply a copy of your photo I.D. and then the Vital Records Office will determine if you can receive the record. You can visit the Tennessee Vital Records Office at the link below for contact information: http://health.state.tn.us/index.htmSincerely,Melissa BarkerGenealogist for Tennessee and KentuckyWebsite: www.freewebs.com/genealogyservices/ > From: IMT155@comcast.net> To: tnmarion@rootsweb.com> Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2008 15:22:26 -0400> Subject: Re: [TNMARION] Death Cert in Marion Co Tn> > I think the birth records were put off limits years ago,unless you were a > direct decendant and could prove it,and since 9/11 you are just out of luck > ,unless you are alive and breathing and can prove you are the person on the > cerftic.> iley> > ps betty i anit pulled on your chain all day,been alseeap in my chair> ----- Original Message ----- > From: <wmcconne@bellsouth.net>> To: <tnmarion@rootsweb.com>> Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 1:44 PM> Subject: Re: [TNMARION] Death Cert in Marion Co Tn> > > >I don't recall seeing any birth records at the Library.> >> > Bill Mc> > -------------- Original message from "Darlene" > > <darlene@adweb.net>: -------------- > >> >> >> Can someone tell us how you get a Death Cert of Your > >> GrGrandmother...Debbie> >> sent for Amanda Martin's Death in Cert she died Jan 9 1951 and They told > >> her> >> she was not directly related had to be Mother, Father, Spouse close> >> relatives ....> >> Darlene> >> ----- Original Message ----- > >> From:> >> To:> >> Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 7:24 AM> >> Subject: Re: [TNMARION] Help with surnames Smith and Martin> >>> >>> >> > forgot to add on the 1920 also shows a Samples and another smith family> >> > ..with Andy as head of house living next door.> >> >> >> >> >> > In a message dated 4/3/2008 10:37:21 A.M.
