Kentucky birth records between 1911 and 1999 include child's name, gender, date of birth, mother's maiden name, county of birth and birth certificate number.
Birth records represent one of the key primary sources for family information, typically being issued within days of a birth and containing the parents' names at a minimum. Many times they contain additional parental details including places of birth, ages, number of children and religious affiliation for baptism and christening records.
