Laura, I would love your help. I'm looking for some birth certificates on my aunt and her mother.....
Aunt is Olive Mae Kienitz born in 1920 and died in either 1925 (family information) or 1928 (headstone in St. John Baptist Cemetery) Mother Helen (below) and father Otto Kienitz. She isn't listed on any census as she must have been born after the 1920 one took place in that area, and obviously died before the next one.
Grandmother - Helen Cecelia Kienitz (nee Helen Drill or Helena Dryll) born 10/30/1897 in Princeton.
Don't when the family Anglasized Dryll or Drill). Never heard of my grandmother being called Helena or using Dryll. But her and one of her sisters are found under Dryll while all other family members are Drill.
No hurry, but any information you can find would be very welcome as our state is one of those that apparently doesn't share data with Ancestory.
