Please help me to locate some information on my biological father. (As you may have read on My Mothers page.)
Here, I will list some information that I have...
Charles B. Stevens
 This is a picture that was tapped into my baby book, on the "Fathers" box.
The following information is NOT correct. Please read down to
Date of birth: January
30, 1938 Date of death: March
10, 1987 Cause of death: unknown Social Security
number: 313-36-0066 Last state of
known residence: Louisville KY wife: unknown children: unknown Parents: unknown Siblings: unknown
(I have been told
that he has a brother and sister) Schools attended:
Indiana Barbering College (1965 or 1966) Here is what I
have done for the search so far... November '94 Called one of my
Aunts. She then told me that his name was Charles Stevens, with a
nic-name of "Chuck". That she had wanted to tell me for
years, but my Uncle wouldn't let her, until I was older. She told
me that Charles and my mother attended Indiana State Barbering
College together. And that it was not a "known"
relationship. (not so much as an affair). Send letter to
Indiana Professional Licensing Angency, requesting information. I
then recieved letter back from David Carter/office administrator.
He had said that there were no names licensed by the name of
Charles Stevens. Which probably meant that Charles was not
licensed in the state of Indiana any longer. That I would have to
request a letter of statement for previous years searched. April '96 April 9....I went
on vacation to Indiana. Located the Barbering college. I met the
director of the college. She rememberd my mother and father. She
verified that Charles was my father. She told me to phone her the
following day, that she was going to try to get me more
information. April 10...I
called her back the next day, she then gave me his name, middle
inital, and a known address in Indiana...which was.... 1616 Penn
St, Indianapolis... and also, 8285 East Street, Route 46,
Bloomington, Indiana. And that he was licensed as a barber in the
state of Georgia. Aptil 22....I
sent letters to Vital Records/birth records and Indiana
Professional Agency (for more info) and Freedom of Information
Officer requestion Charles form SS5. and Social Security
Adminisrtartion/Missing Persons to forward a letter to Charles.
As well as Georgia Professional Licensing Board, requesting
information to clerify information that he was licensed in
Georgia as a barber. May '96 May 3...Recieved
a letter back from Vital Records, sent appication for birth
certificate. Also recieved letter back from Indiana Prof Lic
Agcy. Both said they did not provide information requested. May 8...Mailed
out 4 more letters...1) Methodist Hospital for my birth records
to see if any information was on my birth records. 2)Indiana
Barbering College to the Director, to see if she could gather
more information. 3)Indiana Prof. Lic. Angcy. /David Carter-adm.
another attempt of request for information. 4)Sent a bland
envelope to last address known of Charles, on the envelope I put
"Forwarding address requested". May 13...Called
the Church of Jesus Christ of Laterday Saints in Georgia. Set an
apointment to go up there to go look at the social security
index. May 13....Wrote 3
more letters... 1) International Soundex Region Reg.-to register
and recieve form 2) Indiana State Library/Acrhives
Division-requesting any information that they could find. 3)
Salvation Army Social Service Dept./missing persons bureau-to
forward letter to him, sent photo copies of pictures and s.a.s.e.
for reply. May 16 I went to
Morman Church. Found a Charles B Stevens with date of birth and
date of death, ssn (all listed above). May 17... Mailed
letter to Kentucky Dept of Human recourses, requesting a copy of
death certificate. May
20....Recieved letter back from Bloomington, address (above) with
"forwarding address unknown". May 21....Called
Courior Journal in Louisville to recieve a copy of obituray. May 23....
Recieved a phone call from Vital Records asking what information
I needed. They told me that Methodist Hospital had forwarded my
letter to them. Also recieved letter from Archives Division
letting me know how to get more information. May 28....
Recieved letter back from Kentucky Vital Records- stated that no
records were found. That the death records may not have been
filed by the funeral director. June '96 June 6...Recieved
letter from Courior Journal of Kentucky. There was no obituary
for Charles around the dates given. June 10....
Recieved two letters... 1)Methodist Hospital- they do not keep
medical records past 8 years. 2) Soc. Sec Adm/Missing persons-
Verified that he passed away in March '88. June 12...
Recieved letter from Salvation Army- They could not forward
letter due to "geanalogy purposes". June 27...
Recieved copy of Form SS-5. June 28... Called
Indiana Vital Records- they said that I could not have copy of
birth or death certificate, because there is no "proof"
that he is my biological father. I have to wait 75 years past his
date of birth/death befor they will release information. 1997 A friend of mine did a search on the internet for me, for I did not have a computer at the time. She somehow found that Charles passed away in Missouri. I have not done anything in that direction as yet. My all time dream
is to locate information on his family. So that I may talk to
them, even if it's only once. I am happily married, and a mother
of three children. I lost my mother when I was 16 years due to
cancer. Only then did she tell me my fathers name, and that they
attended Barbering College together. Over the years, and with the
loss of my mother, I had forgotten she told me that much. This is
why I called my Aunt a few years later. My mother was going to
locate him when I got older, and would be mautre enought to
understand their situation. But she passed before we had the
chance (in 1983). My mother never married, so she raised me on
her own. I am also
promising that if I ever do get to speak with his family over the
phone, I will stess that I do not wish to cause any harships. I hope you can
help me. Putting this site up is a last resort, for all other
avenues in my serach have come to an end. I do not have the money
to pay for a Private Investigator. Therefore, I have done all
this, and more in the searching on information. UPDATE ~1999~ Once again, I opend my books and jumped in, head first. This time, only more determined than ever before. May 9, 1999...Well, through my journey of all that hard work, it seems that I have the wrong information on Charles Stevens.
(more coming soon) A special "Thank you" to Nick Please take a moment out and visit my new found friend...Nick. (just click on the banner below) And please feel free to take this banner, and link it back to...
