[or-roots] Coos County birth docs

[Lee Gentemann]

A word of caution about Delayed Birth Records.

Delayed birth records at the State Archives are subject to the same
restrictions as conventional birth records in Oregon.  They aren't available
until 100 years after the birth year.

Some counties might have records and might let a person get copies but odds
are they won't.

Good luck,
