Frequently Asked Questions
Can you do some local research for me in Maui County?
I don't live in Hawaii, I am unable to do local research. I have several USGenWeb Counties that I take care of as well, this limits my time. You can also check with some of the others who have volunteered there time on the lookups page.
What you can all so do is post a query to the Maui County Query Forum. That way someone else who may be researching the same person or who may have some information might see it and be able to respond to your query.
You can also join the Maui County HIMAUI-L list , and post your query there.
I am adopted, can you help me find my birth parents/my original birth record before the adoption?
After an adoption, the original birth record and all other legal documents related to the adoption are sealed and
are not accessible except under certain procedures specified by state law.
There is a very good list of web pages for Adoption Resources on Cindi's List of Genealogy Sites on the Internet, which you can find at the link: http://www.cyndislist.com/adoption.htm
