I have recently received my OBC,
bmom born Terre Haute, IN 1936/7 Cannot find anyone that fits the date. Have some speculation on a northen Indiana match but off by 3 years and not sure why born in Terre Haute then moved ?
What I need to find is some sort of birth index or way of inferring that she was actually born there. Perhaps the local newspaper researched for births?
Thanks JO1959
Jo, not sure if this would help (I'm no search angel... LOL) but have you tried checking the 1940 census that was just released? If you have an approximate address or a last name, you might be able to search in the census records for her family. It won't be a birth record, but she'd appear in the 1940 census and you'd get a little bit of info in regards to parent/sibling names.

Yes I checked the 1940 census, and did not find what I was looking for. In the process of searching, I eliminated the most likely bmom. A lot of ups and downs this week. Put work on hold (for the most part) the last week.
Thanks for the suggestion. And if only I had the indexed census 1940, I could put a few things to rest.

I no longer need help in the Terre Haute area. I was able to find the info through other sources.
Thanks JO1959
