The mother filled an application to petition (beg, pray) the State for a birth certificate.
The grantor is the State.
The mother, in this case, is the settlor.
Now that I think upon it more, the State is the trustee.
You use the certificate to establish that you are a beneficiary for other services such as Social Security, driver's license, etc.
Except in this case, the beneficiary pays for the the maintenance of services provided by the trustee.
Government officials supposedly occupy offices of trust rather than of profit through their oath of office to their respective Constitutions.
Offices of trust is trusteeship.
