      EXPLANATIONS:
      Delayed birth certificates were birth records, filed years after the birth. Affidavits were sworn by relatives, or family doctors, present when the birth occurred. Baptismal records or family Bibles were also used to document the original birth date.

      In 1940, birth certificates were needed to obtain Social Security cards. Births that had not been previously recorded, could be filed as a delayed birth certificate with the County Clerk. Some people born as early as 1858 were filing for a delayed birth certificate. Births after 1925 have been omitted.
