Is it from the lds church? If so you could check their website

No. Churches have been brought under the same privacy laws as local governments. Because a baptismal certificate can be used in lieu of a birth certificate, you have to provide proof of identity and obtain it directly from the church that baptized you. If the local church has closed, the diocesan center or bishopric will have an archives where the records would have been sent for safe keeping.
