<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face=Sylfaen><span style='font-size:
12.0pt;font-family:Sylfaen;color:blue'>I noticed that you are from University
Place, Washington which is very close to Milton-Freewater, Oregon. I was
wondering if you (or any others that could give advice) might be able to help
me. My grandfather was born at home in Milton Freewater, Oregon
(Freewater at the time) on March 28, 1918 but I can find no record of it at the
county, city, or state level (I have checked both Oregon and Washington).
Since Milton Freewater is on the border of the state line, could you tell me if
there are any special rules regarding delayed birth records. I have no
idea where else to look. I have even tried newspaper clippings. Any
ideas would be greatly appreciated!</span></font></p>
