My birth certificate does not list my parents?

I was born in New Jersey in 1989. I have never seen another birth certificate where the parents were not listed but all mine states is my name and my date of birth, not even a time or stats (weight, length, etc). Is this typical for the state or could I have been surrendered and adopted at the hospital? Nothing about my parents story about pregnancy or birth adds up to me but my biggest concern is the birth certificate. My mother-in-law who was born in 1957 has her parents listed on her birth certificate!My birth certificate does not list my parents?
Apply for a copy of your full birth certificate, which should give you all the information you are looking for.....and will stop you reading more into your parents explanations about your birth, people even parents forget about pregnacy/birth as so much emotionally is going on at that time, what you have is a short birth certificate, which only gives the information you state.
In Australia you now only get a 'Birth Extract' which only has your name and date and place of birth on it and nothing else. If you want a full certificate which includes the parents names you have to order it, maybe that is what is happening in New Jersey too? Have you tried asking people who are the same age as you what sort of certificate they were issued with, things may have changed since 1957.



If I was you I would try and order a full birth cert and see what you get- here is the website to do that.

Many states have both long form and short form birth certificates. When you order one you get the short one if you don't say you want the long or full form.

Check to see if your state has both.My birth certificate does not list my parents?
You're Adopted.

Or they chose not to disclose their names. My younger brother doesn't have our dad listed as the father, but under mine my dad's name is there.

Go ask your parents for the real deal
