Birth and marriage records for people in Nicholasville
A child born in Nicholasville is registered with Israel on the strength of an original birth certificate (the mission’s birth notice page).
In Kentucky that certificate comes from the Office of Vital Statistics of the Department for Public Health, in Frankfort (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the fee is on the Kentucky page.
For a marriage in Jessamine County, the county of Nicholasville, the CDC’s directory for Kentucky sends requests to the Jessamine County Court Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the mission asks for the certificate with an apostille.
The Kentucky Secretary of State is the authority that puts the apostille on a document from Kentucky (HCCH list), before it is used in Israel.
