Re: Registering a foreign birth, question about marriage cert

I don't believe you need to include your marriage certificate if your name did not change. It does not alter the chain of documents needed to prove you qualify by descent. At worst they would ask for it down the road but I doubt it.

We are going round and round in the family and I would like to hear if someone has gotten their adult children onto the FBR this way. It would be great to have that open to future generations. No......on...
