Missouri Birth Certificates of adoptees

According to the Spring issue of the  Missouri State Genealogical Society newsletter ( pg.5), adoptees born before 1941 now have legal access to a non-certified copy of original birth certificates.  Requests will be answered with a copy of the unredacted birth record stamped with "For Genealogical purposes not to be used for establishing identity".    For more information direct queries to the "Missouri Adoptee Rights Act" Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services.
