Searching for records on my grandfather. He was born in Memphis‚ TN on March 6‚ 1932 then adopted in 1932 or 1933 in either TN‚ MS or AR. He died in a car accident on June 28‚ 1962 in Starkville‚ MS. My mother has tried to find records for years and is always hit with roadblocks. Today I talked to some in Vital Records in Memphis‚ TN and she told me that his birth certificate is there in records but in "hold" status. She did ask for his adopted parents' names and replied those are not the names on the TN birth certificate. She also stated she has never seen an old record like this in the "hold" status. She gave me the number to the main office in Nashville and I'm waiting for a call back from the manager there. My mother has breast cancer and this something she has wanted for years.
