Message Board Post:
I would like to obtain the birth certificate of an ancestor who was born in Nevada in
March of 1889. My problems are: 1) I don't know if birth records were kept in
Nevada as early as 1889, and 2) I don't know in which of Nevada's counties this
person was born. If any of you seasoned veterans can give me some guidance, that would be
great. Even if you can only tell me that records weren't kept yet in 1889, or that I
am out-of-luck without the specific county, I would appreciate knowing that. If, on the
other hand, birth records WERE kept in 1889, and/or there IS some mechanism for searching
records statewide, I would be grateful for such information.
