Good evening all, I just went through the WI site and tried to find a way to order a birth Cert. of my grandmother. RUTH BARTLETT ACKERMAN , b. Feb. 16, 1895/or 96. The site is not working for orders or searching. Can someone out there help me out? Ruth, Ohio

Register of Deeds office. The address is: 721 Oxford Ave. Eau Claire, WI 54701 Make sure you enclose a SASE (legal size) and state that you would like a copy for "Genealogical purposes". Also include as much information as you can about her, especially her full name and her birthdate. It is also best to send a money order, as many of the county courthouses don't accept checks and this can slow up the process. I see that your grandmother's birth is on file at the state level (according to the pre-1907 birth index), so it might only be at that level and not on the county level. I would still suggest that you try to get it from the county level first. They are much faster in responding. I've heard that the state can take up to six months before they get to your order. If you still would like to go this route, you can mail your $12.00 to: Wisconsin Division of Health Vital Records P.O. Box 309 1 West Wilson Street, Rm 158 Madison, WI 53701 Include the same information that you would if sending to the Eau Claire Co. office. But also include these numbers, as they pertain to an Ackerman, born 16 Feb. 1896: Reel: 0063 Record: 001802 As per your question on Marie Anderson, would you like me to do a search to see if I can find her on the Pre-1907 birth index under Koppelberger? Do you think she was born before 1907? Let me know and I will look after dinner. :~) -- Nance mailto:nsampson@spacestar.net
