Hello,
1. Try this Michigan website for Birth certificate information:
http://www.michigan.gov/hal/0,1607,7-160-17449_18635_18646---,00.html
2. Yes, Michigan has the same practices. However, some cities/counties are
only open on certain days for genealogy look ups. Try this website for more
information:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~mistclai/index.html
3. 1943 to 1946 are still considered recent so you may not find much in the
way of city directories but the two links I provide above should direct you
to any that exist.
4. Most records are not released to the public until 75/100 years after the
date of issue for privacy reasons. So I am not sure you would be able to
obtain any of the birth, marriage or death records until that time has
passed.
The only thing I would suggest is if you could find out where his parents or
grandparents were born/died etc. Hope this helps, good luck in your search.
Regards,
W.R. Walker

Subject: [MIGEN] Port Huron, Michigan questions
I live in Texas and know I'll never make it to Michigan...
I have a couple questions.
1. Where would I apply for a birth certificate, when I don't know what
city
or county he was born in? DOB 1923 possibly. I was told who his parents
were, ( but not sure.)
Kenneth S. Adams and Ruth Ann Campbell.
They used to live on 1312 Beard St., Port Huron.... in 1947
2. Does the Port Huron court house records dept., have alphabetical
listing for marriages and divorces ? I was raised in Topeka, Kansas, and
they allowed you to go in to the records dept, each l was in a seperate
book
and it had the grooms name and also the brides name and date of marriage
and
divorces. You look up the code and they would pull the mirco film. I
wasn't sure if Michigan did the same thing.
3. Does anyone happen to know how I can get a look up In City directories
for about 1943 to 46 for Port Huron, Michigan ?
4. I just located my father, after 35 years of looking. James Stewart
ADAMS
Born April 12, 1921 died Dec 21, 1992 in Ok. and now I want to find
anything possible about him before 1947. I know he has 2 children, a boy
and a girl. James Robert and Darline Alena ( I think )
His wife was Deloris ?
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
If anyone can possibly help, I'd greatly appricate it.
For 8 years, I was stuck on another DEAD James Stewart ADAMS in Cal. and
it
tore my heart out thinking his death was my fault. Now that I have the
correct father and facts to prove, I just want to find out who and what he
was. I was 4 when my parents divorced and Bammm Never saw or heard from
him after that.. Never did know what I did wrong...
Thanks to everyone who read this and any help at all is better than what I
have now. Not sure where to turn,,
Thanks so much
