Default So, Are you looking for a way to get a copy of the Birth Certificate?

IF so, this is a place I used at one time....
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/chump
And here is another:
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w.htm
I used the first site? It cost me $$'s but was worth it..
What's needed is county/city/state/date of birth? And I'd picked the brains of elder siblings to remember the address of the house we'd lived at at the time. [we'd moved a few months after I was born, so I didn't know of it, now I do.]

The whole thing was about $40 [usd] to order a copy and get it special delivered to ME to be signed for and certified. It took less than the 10 days posted, in the US, so I don't know how it'd go to where you live or not. Maybe to a sibling IN the US?

I understand on many levels, especially with some portions of the US population wanting us all to have 'papers'? Well, I got sick last year, my driver's license expired while I was in the Hospital, and I couldn't find my Birth Certificate for the life of me! I really, truly felt almost disenfranchised! Or a non-person!
Ask me more if you need more? These sites are pretty simple to use. Charge card and address, PLUS key info? And you got it! Good luck. I can and do understand all frustrations about this all! - j
PS? Let us know how it all works out? Please?
