How were births on an Army base or in an army hospial recorded?
A8: The only Naval Hospital that I’m aware of is near Seattle. There is a Whidbey Island NB and there is also a large shipyard around there someplace. Normally if the child is born in the military facility, the birth is recorded at the county clerks office and a certificate from that county is issued. That’s how is was done with mine at least. You could try writing/calling the appropriate county clerk’s offices and see if you have any luck. You’ll really need to narrow down the birth date to at least a year – but I have had some luck using just the name and a range of years.
