Re: Update Birth Certificate

I would call the vital records dept. in Austin Texas or check out their website on-line to see if they can help you.

After 18, an "adoption" of an adult is easy to do.

Let me know if that is what you need. I offer DIY adoption kits if I think it will work for you.

Good luck!
