Re: name not on birth certificate
Contact the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Austin (if you were born in Texas). There is a procedure. It involves getting a copy of their marriage certificate and her death certificate. They will need other documentation as well to support the facts, such as notarized affidavits of witnesses, baptismal records, school records etc. Good luck.
