Is there a quick way

[Duchess]

to find birth certificates from the 1950's? Online I mean. I need a birth certificate and don't even know what state it was in. The few things I found want your credit card first. I thought maybe one of you fine folks would know something super easy, like enter the name into a site and it pops up. easy peasy.

It's going to be very difficult if you don't have some relevant information. Do you know the parents names? Do you know the month, day & year of the birth?
