Several years ago, I was engaged in family researching in Bosque County, TX. My mother was born there on the McKissick Ranch. I needed her birth certificate in order to apply for membership in the Daughters of the Republic of Texas.
I drove over the the court house and tried to do a little research, but found little information. They were getting ready to renovate the building, and it was messy inside. So, disappointed, I came home.
About a year later, I decided to call to ask about a birth record on her, so I did. I connected with the County Clerk and asked her about the birth records.
She replied, "Them records is in a trailer somewhere, and we don't know where it is."
