Could you post any information directly on your request rather than sending to a member by message. That way everyone that is trying to help you sees it as well.

Good luck,

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 6 Dec 2012 12:14

You wont find a birth cert if he was born pre1837 when registration started.

Many births after 1837 to 1875 werent reg either . In 1875 it became legal to reg a birth with a fine for non or late registration.

Have you tried Family Search site for a possible baptism .
