Ok well many people may or may not know that the Texas Vital statistics web page housed birth records from 1950 - at least 1995 well they decided to yank them I guess because someone found their birth parents or birthparents found their kids... so anyway.. I figured out where they were still hidden away one some geneology web sites.. such as here Use the google search engine and go to rootsweb These are in self extracting archives such as Birth69.exe which will extract a text named for example BIRTH69.txt now what these contain is the births of every child in the State of Texas for that year. The listings are in this format: LastName FirstName MiddleName DOB Sex CountyOfBirth Its pretty easy to figure out... Now the people I would guess that this would be most useful for is birth parents or siblings searching for a brother/sister halfbrother/halfsister. If you know the county and birthdate you should really be able to narrow down your search. If anyone cant get their hands on these files for some reason and would like to host a site where these can be stored for the future let me know soon and I will send them to you. Please dont be lazy and email me for the files because you dont want to download them from the site yourself I dont need the junk mail : ) But if you cant get to them feel free to email me. Look here and go through FTP Directory on the state your interested in to find the records. It may take a little looking around but they are there. Posted this because I got several emails asking about birth records for other states. Russ Thompson Stop Texas Governments identity theft! OPEN RECORDS AT 18!

Any idea how long it takes to go through a book in Austin? I'm assuming El Paso County is fairly large. The last names of these baby boys in this EXE file should match their mother's name in the Austin books. The one that does not match any on my list should be the name I'm looking for, it's just a matter of elimination. Provided he was the only boy on the list who was adopted out. Could I do this in a day? Do they allow anyone to look at these books? I would be coming from out of state to do this. I would like to have a general idea of what to expect. Can you look at this book for free? Are there tables for sitting as you look through them? Do you have to give a reason why your looking? I do not have my brother's BC#, but I would think name elimination would bring it down to 1 or 2 possibilities. Thanks to anyone who has been to Austin and can give me advice on this....

I'm not sure if you can post web sites on this, but I did find the Texas Birth Index if you would like it.

You can try this site for Texas however you will only find the child's name and the adoptive parents' name. Please let me know if this helps. Sincerely, Argentina [url]https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1949342[/url]
