Talk:How to Find Iowa Birth Records

https://eogn.com/page-18080/12222643 is an article about obtaining birth certificates for adoptees. I think this would be good to add to the page, but leave the adding to someone who knows the policy. Davis Gardner 410-461-5596

Regarding article about birth certificates for adoptees
Hello Davis, Thank you for providing this information. It's a wonderful option for adoptees, I agree. I looked at the article at EOGN and noticed that it references the original announcement by the Iowa Department of Public Health. The How to Find Iowa Birth Records wiki page has several links to the IDPH, where this same announcement (titled 'Open Adoption Records - Access to Original Birth Certificate') is prominently displayed in the Vital Records section under Birth, Death and Marriage Certificates. I think this will be sufficient, as anyone looking at the IDPH webpage for information about their birth record will see it.

Thanks again for your input and your interest in the FamilySearch wiki! Your contributions and ideas are helping to build and improve the wiki for all those interested in their family history.
