From: tinaprescott@worldnet.att.net
I am seeking to find my birthmother or any siblings. I was born in Brooklyn November 4 1946. I was adopted when I was about 18 to 28 months old. All that I know is that I was sickly and could not be released from Angel Guardian until I was better. The name on my birth certificate is Catherine Rose Bacchi. My adoptive parents were Jerome and Theresa Bacchi. The birth record # is 49445 although there is another number written in the left hand corner #49p55. The birth certificate is dated July 19, 1950. This date makes me think that I may have been adopted at an older age then I was told. My baptizal record is about the same time. I can not give you any other information because I have none and what I was told has turned out to be all lies.
Thank you
Tina

Searching for half brother named Raymond (Raymie) Born 14 March 1946 in Albuquerque, NM. Mothers first name Barbara. No last name but may have been married at one time to O. E. Crawford and to Earl Watts prior to his adoption. He was placed for adoption in 1950 in Fairborn, Ohio. Our grandmother was heartbroken that she wasn't well enough to keep him. Her journal tells of her love for him. I believe birth mother may have been from Boston and may have passed away in Illinois, but no way to know for sure.
Thank you, Lloyd

My birthname was Kathleen Leatherman. My non-identifying ID states that my birthmother was 16, one of 7 daughters, and she was a twin, brought up on a 365 acre farm near a small town. My father was 18, and in the service. Bmother's sisters were good students, one valedictorian, one salutatorian, and she was an A student.

I was born at Kings Hospital 4-7-47. Remember being in a couple of foster homes at a very young age. Was adopted by the Lee family at about four and may have been called Gwendolyn Lynda Lee. They apparently were both killed in an auto accident. Was placed in a Catholic Orphanage and subsequently adopted by a family in Maryland at age five and named Patricia. Looking for anything that can lead me to my birthmom or any family.

Hello,
My name is Donna Walker Wray. I am searching for a brother that my dad fathered while serving overseas in World War 11. I believe the child was born toward the end of the war, 1944 or 1945, which would make him 58 or 59 years old. My father's name is CLYDE WENTON WALKER from Monterey, Tennessee. I have pictures of the birth mother and my father has spelled her name two different ways on those pictures. Her name is either LOIS SLOAN or LOIS SLOON. She was slim built with black hair. Thanks.
