How to Find Chicago Birth Certificates After 1915

Chicago birth certificates are available on FHL microfilm through 1922, but the Cook County Birth Index, 1871-1916, with a few exceptions, seems to end with 1915.

Request copies of birth certificates from 1916 forward from the Cook County Clerk's Office. Non-certified copies of birth certificates are available for genealogical purposes if the deaths occurred seventy-five or more years before the date of the request. Cost: $15 PDF Form
