Subject: Re: [KnoxCoTN] Too Funny

Thanks, Nina! After spending a day with a cousin at the TN State Library

- -- and she found absolutely nothing on any of her TN lines -- we can

appreciate this. The Halbert's line was too good...<g>

Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Delayed Birth Certificates in Tennessee

About two weeks ago, some new microfilm arrived at the TN State Library and

Archives. It's the delayed birth certificates -- the ones for people who

were born before 1914, when TN started requiring them (and some who didn't

have one on file for whatever reason, even if they were born after that date).

I didn't find anything on the web site about this group of records, but I

have to tell you it's worth checking. I didn't find my grandfather, durn

it, but I did copy all the Acuffs. One was a birth in 1868!

Be sure you check this group next time you're in Nashville -- or write to

reference@mail.state.tn.us to inquire what it will cost to get a printout

of your surname's soundex code (that's how they're organized).
