I was just a child during WW2 in Westfield, New Jersey when my mother had me fingerprinted incase the war came to the east coast. It was done at the police head quarters.

Fingerprints taken as an identifier for parents, such as your situation, are given to the parents. They are not entered into any files. Only fingerprints taken for criminal activity, military service, or for security clearance (such as for specialized licensure) are entered into the database.

the police headquarters in Westfield New Jersey during WW2 has probably updated their system in the last 50 or so years. Even now-the police departments give the prints to the parents-they never go into a file.Unless they were very good record keepers-I doubt the print card has been accessible for more than 40 years. As a child-you were not charged with a crime. The only reason to worry that your prints were laying around would be if the prints were taken as part of a criminal investigation.

It is highly unlikely.

Probably not.
