Look at my post (#84)
I am sure any changes made from 1961 to 1968 did not include completely changing the document.
The document posted as his Birth Certificate looks alot more modern than mine. I am pretty sure that the BC’s looked pretty much the same in 61 and 68.
No one’s trying to say the document above is the actual birth certificate issued at the time of this birth. It is a certified copy, issued on the date it was requested (or very shortly thereafter). I happen to have a copy of my original birth certificate, because that’s what they gave people when I needed it for my driver’s license. I couldn’t get that now — what I would get is similar to what’s above. Also, I recently got married, and the marriage certificate I got from the County Clerk’s office, just about three weeks after I got married, was nothing like the actual marriage license that I got ahead of time and was signed by the minister.
