Back to the Metternichs

This birth certificate for Henrietta Metternich was copied from microfilm at the New Jersey Bureau of Vital Statistics in Trenton. Notice how the certificate was filed in 1942, 45 years after her birth. This was submitted after finding her baptismal certificate in St. Mathew's Church, the same church her parents were married in, and according to the top right hand corner, it is also the same church her father was buried in. It looks like his death was in 1898.
