I am sorry that I don't have access to birth certificates, they are available at the PortageCoWI courthouse, located in St Point, WI. Perhaps someone on the PortageCoWI mailing list will be able to help you out... I checked some on-line resources and the name Carmen BENDEL did not come up. However, I included some of what I did find...
