Many Adoptees Seek Birth Records Under New Hampshire's New Law
The initial rush has passed but adults adopted as children continue to seek their original birth records since New Hampshire law gave them access. When the law changed in January, 149 people requested their birth certificates in the first week. By the end of the month, the number hit 343. Not every adoptee has had success when finally armed with the information. Biological parents can advise the state if they don't want to be contacted and that is included with the birth records.
