FIND YOUR RECORDS
Steps to Acquiring Waco State Home Records
  1. To secure your records from the Waco State Home, you must provide a copy of a driver’s license or other government-issued ID.
  2. If you are a family member seeking a relative’s records, you must be able to show proof of relationship with a birth certificate or other government document.
  3. If your relative is alive, you must include a copy of her/his driver’s license or government-issued ID, along with a signed letter from that relative granting approval for you to access the records.
  4. If your relative is deceased, you must be able to provide a copy of the death certificate or an obituary.
