      <description>We are the proud adoptive family of a Unjited States Marine, killed six months ago.  We seek information/location of his birth mother/siblings/family.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The gift of Baby Boy DORR born April 25, 1976 in Cheyenne, OK and placed for adoption with this family is an incredible story of love, honor, courage and commitment that we hope to share with his birth family.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We have always felt he was never far from their minds.  If you can help locate this family, his story needs to be shared and we hope only to express the love and joy their gift brought to this family for 32 years.  Thank you.</description>

      <title>Boys Born 1953 &amp;amp; 1963, Riverside Co CA, Marfans disease runs in family. This is your Sister</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10194/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I have two brothers adopted out. One brother born 1963 and one in  1953-1954. My other sister and I have begged our mother to give us the info we need to search. She refuses to help. Their first names MAY be {{NOT CERTAIN}} Terry Lynn and Danny or Daniel. The boy in 1963 could have surname of walker or taylor.  The birth dates May be 16 Aug 1953 and 13 Feb 1963. The birth dates are NOT May 1956 –Jan 1957 (was pregnant with me),  and its NOT late 1958- July 1959 (was pregnant with another sister).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I know that is not much to go on. Her maiden name was Taylor and she lived in Riverside Ca at the time of both births. Mother: Carol Ann Taylor DOB: 25 Feb 1937 Riverside CA. Carol has been married three times that I know of. Carol has Used names of Walker, Howard and O’Neil. She was 17 for first boy and 26 for second&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Marfan disease runs HEAVY through the family with about half the family having it. It sometimes skips a person but then their children will still get it. There have been several deaths. If you do not have it but a offspring does that explains it. I can send anyone a letter about Marfans. Just email me and it is yours&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maternal Grandmother was Katherine Exa (yes Exa not Eva) Bussey Taylor 1913-2007 born in San Jacinto died in Hemet Ca. Maternal grandfather was Andrew “Clyde” Taylor 1914-1999 born in Kansas died in Riverside. Most people did not know his given name was Andrew because he only used Clyde.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Taylors lived at the same address for almost 60 years and were married 65 years when Andrew passed away: 1739 Mathews St, Riverside CA 92507. Carol grew up there. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Carol abandoned my Sister Belinda Sue Walker and I there in 1963 and was gone without a word 8 years. She is an alcoholic. Carol has lived in California, Minnesota, Texas and who can guess where else. She is currently in St Paul Minnesota.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The baby born in 1963 may have my dad listed as father. Phillip Edward Walker (1933-1972), Born in Indiana and died in Sacramento CA. Although I do not believe Phillip to be the father.  Carol and Phillip married in 1956 (she was very pregnant with me) and divorced in 1963. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Carol has admitted the boys several times but refuses to give any real info on them. I am sick about this, as she is very ill and 71. When she dies there goes the only person that really knows. My grandmother admitted on her deathbed (2007) that she knew about both boys and that Carol (her daughter) went to a “Laying in Home” (home for unwed mothers) for both baby boys. She claimed to remember no details. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please know if you are my brother, you are loved, that you are wanted! You have nieces, nephews and siblings&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Email me and I can call anywhere and talk to you. &lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="mailto://debbra_walker@ymail.com"&gt;debbra_walker@ymail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

      <title>Adoption searching for my birth father - Elmira, NY - Gaughan - 4/21/77</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10193/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hello.  I'm searching for my birth father or his family. I was born 4/21/77 to Ann Gaughan who lived in Elmira, NY.  No one in her family has any information as to the identity of my birth father.  Ann was 26 at the time I was born and had a 4 year old son named Billy.  she is unwilling to give me any information as to who my birth father may be so all I have to go on is my non-identifying information. I'm not even sure this man knew she was pregnant as the only person in her family who knew was her mother.  &lt;br&gt;According to the non-identifying info. I have, my birth father was 27 at the time of my birth and employed as a mechanic (possibly in Elmira?) &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If anyone has any info or any ideas on how I might be able to go about finding this person, I'd appreciate the info. I'm recently married and my husband and I are hoping to start a family soon - I'd like to be able to give my children as much info as possible on their background.</description>

      <description>I am looking for my birth father, named Steven Hanna. He is approximately 60 years old, maybe a little younger. He met my mom working at the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles in 1977 and 1978 maybe longer, he was the manager of a restaurant called the garden room, which I believe has another name now. This is all I know, I do not know his middle name, just that I assume he is living in CA still somewhere.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="mailto://heatherkimberly@hotmail.com"&gt;heatherkimberly@hotmail.com&lt;/a&gt;</description>

I was born Alex Hilburn our half brother  Arthur was also born as a Hilburn but was really a son of Junior Heard.&lt;br&gt;Our birth mom is Pauline Elizabeth Golden.   Arthur is in a nursing home.   I met him through God's grace a few years ago.  I would be glad to keep this confidential. I really would love to meet her. Art thinks she went to a family from the Dallas /Ft Worth area. We were in a foster home in Lamesa, TX.  Teesee and Art were together at first but then they were seperated.  &lt;br&gt;   I hope this finds someone who knows Alethea Diane.</description>

      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10183/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Searching for my brother who we believe&lt;br&gt;was born in 1949/1950. May have blonde&lt;br&gt;hair and blue eyes. Possible that he&lt;br&gt;may have been born in Olney, Texas. One&lt;br&gt;story was that he was in Olney, Texas&lt;br&gt;in 1950. Another story is he was born&lt;br&gt;in Wichita Falls. He may have been &lt;br&gt;adopted out at 12-18 months old. It&lt;br&gt;is our understanding that our bio-mother&lt;br&gt;was underage and the State took the &lt;br&gt;child. Our brothers birthname was &lt;br&gt;James or Jimmy, last name unknown. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One of my half sisters said that &lt;br&gt;she was contacted by phone by a&lt;br&gt;gentleman who claimed to be a brother.&lt;br&gt;Extending circumstances occurred and&lt;br&gt;contact was not made.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;James, you do have family trying&lt;br&gt;to find you. We just learned of you&lt;br&gt;not too long ago. We also learned&lt;br&gt;that there is a sister missing too.&lt;br&gt;I too am an adoptee, also from the&lt;br&gt;Olney, Texas area. We are wishing&lt;br&gt;to contact you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Blessings,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mary</description>

      <title>iso birth sister -- Jonquil Marie Baltimore b. 20 Oct 1946</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10182/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I am looking for my husband's birth sister Jonquil Marie Baltimore b. 20 Oct 1946 in San Francisco, CA . Birth certificate shows Birth Mother Hazel Marie Hite worked as maid and your Birth Father Samuel Baltimore. Birth mother died on 12 Oct 1987 in Sacramento, CA. We do have a copy of Jonquil's birth certificate which means she was never adopted.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jonquil's was advertised in the newpapers in Northern California i.e., Sacramento, San Francisco and other Nothern CA newspapers in the summer of 1946. Hazel made the decision to place Jonquil with the her prospectiv parents before her birth. Her prospective parents lived in San Francisco where Jonquil was born. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jonquil may have been placed the California foster system. As her birth mother, Hazel Marie Hite, refused to allow her children to be adopted. We do have a copy of Jonquil's birth certificate, which tells us she was never adopted.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jonquil's foster mother came to my father-in-law's shop Durrett's ABC&amp;amp;E in Roseville, CA. Her foster mom wanted the children, Jonquil &amp;amp; her brother, Norman, to grew up knowing each other. My father-in-law, W T Durrett, later regreted his decision to NOT have the children say in touch. When WT Durrett contacted Jonquil's mother, she and her husband had changed their mind, this could have been because of Hazel's influence.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jonquil you have an older sister, Bonnie, and a brother Norman who would love to met you. (This is not there names now but there birth names), you also have a sister named Gloria Jean Baltimore b. 1942 who we are searching for.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jonquil if you are reading this both your brother and sister would love to know you and your family. If not, we would love to give you medical information we have found on your birth mother's family.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If any of this sounds familiar, please email me at jmdgenealogy AT yahoo.com&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

      <title>Birthmother: Jean Ellen Blanchette</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10167/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hi Everyone,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I hope someone can help.  I was born in Los Angeles, California on September 14, 1980, and was adopted at 11 months old.  Adoption went through Orange County.  I have searched and located my birthmother in Oregon, but she hasn't answered any of my attempts at contact.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I also located 2 of my brothers from her marriage.  We have been in contact since 2003.  But I have another brother I'm still looking for.  We were all born in California.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;My birthmother, Jean Ellen Blanchette was born in Germany on January 20, 1960.  Her mother's maiden name was Helga Hoffner.  Her father was in the Military and was stationed there.  When Jean was 13, she went back to the USA to live with her father in Texas.  He and his second wife married in Kentucky.  Jean stayed in Texas till 1979, then she came to California.  She lived in many places in California till late 1995, when she moved to Oregon.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Like I said earlier in my post.  I have another brother born in California.  I have his date of birth and name.  Anyone who may be able to help, could you please e-mail me?  My e-mail address is: &lt;a href="mailto://ATripp6159@aol.com"&gt;ATripp6159@aol.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Gretchen&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;  </description>

      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10166/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hello, I am trying to help Ann locate her dad, PAUL&lt;br&gt;ELGIN FERGUSON and HALF BROTHER who was adopted out.&lt;br&gt;Her dad disappeared on Thanksgiving Day, 1958, from&lt;br&gt;Creve&lt;br&gt;Coeur, Illinois. &lt;br&gt;Ann believes that her father changed at least part of&lt;br&gt;his name because Social Security has had no info on&lt;br&gt;him&lt;br&gt;since a few months BEFORE he disappeared. She believes&lt;br&gt;he applied for a new social security number&lt;br&gt;and changed at least part of his name. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She knows that he bought a car in the name of P.E.&lt;br&gt;Ferguson a few days before he disappeared. His name&lt;br&gt;was PAUL ELGIN FERGUSON, so he might have changed it&lt;br&gt;to something like Paul Eugene or Peter Elgin..that way&lt;br&gt;he could keep the same initials..and then he probably&lt;br&gt;changed his birthday by a few days. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;MINNIE ANN PHIPPS disappeared with him and is the&lt;br&gt;mother to her half brother, but no relation to Ann.&lt;br&gt;Her dad was born in Trenton, Grundy Co., MO. on April&lt;br&gt;9, 1924(they lived in Creve Coeur, IL., at the time he&lt;br&gt;disappeared with Minnie Ann PHIPPS. She changed her&lt;br&gt;name to ANN PHIPPS CARCUFFE in 1984. A few months ago&lt;br&gt;she learned that she died of a heart attack in 2003 in&lt;br&gt;Paris, TX). &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ann knows that her dad and Minnie Ann went to Alameda Countynty, CA when they left Illinois, as she filed for&lt;br&gt;her SS card in 1959 in California and the record she&lt;br&gt;has says "FERGUSON BABY/PHIPPS, mother, live birth,&lt;br&gt;June 9, 1959, Alameda Co., Ca" is also in California. &lt;br&gt;The state of California Dept. of Social Services says&lt;br&gt;that have no record of an adoption. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I don't know if this helps, but thought I should add&lt;br&gt;some of dad, Pauls' genealogy, just to ring a bell.&lt;br&gt;His father's name was Roy ELGIN FERGUSON and his&lt;br&gt;mother was Pauline Thompson Woods FERGUSON, both of&lt;br&gt;Trenton, MO.. His grandparents were William Thomas&lt;br&gt;Ferguson, born in Kingston, Ontario and Phoebe Rachel&lt;br&gt;McCoy, born near Laclede, MO. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If some one has any way of locating her dad, are&lt;br&gt;finding out the name/location of her brother, please&lt;br&gt;email her directly or post here, and I will forward it&lt;br&gt;to her, she has been searching over half her life&lt;br&gt;trying to find them, and thinks maybe her dad is&lt;br&gt;deceased, surely by now he would have at least&lt;br&gt;contacted someone in the family, but would like to&lt;br&gt;know for sure, and would love to find her half&lt;br&gt;brother. Anns ' email address is &lt;a href="mailto://eafruits@gmail.com"&gt;eafruits@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt; or contact me here, thank you&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;UPDATE_ someone sent this below, however we still have not got any closer to answers, as the state of CA still hasn't sent paperwork that Ann requested:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Doing a search by date of the California Birth Index, I discovered (3) births in Alameda County on that date with the mother's maiden name listed at PHIPPS--quite a coincidence. All of them list only one name, which is unusual. Most have an entire name listed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Name: Alkire&lt;br&gt;Birth Date: 9 Jun 1959&lt;br&gt;Gender: Male&lt;br&gt;Mother's Maiden Name: PHIPPS&lt;br&gt;Birth County: Alameda&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;** AND **&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Name: FERGUSON&lt;br&gt;Birth Date: 9 Jun 1959&lt;br&gt;Gender: Male&lt;br&gt;Mother's Maiden Name: PHIPPS&lt;br&gt;Birth County: Alameda&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;** AND **&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Name: PHIPPS&lt;br&gt;Birth Date: 9 Jun 1959&lt;br&gt;Gender: Male&lt;br&gt;Mother's Maiden Name: PHIPPS&lt;br&gt;Birth County: Alameda&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Source Citation: Birthdate: 9 Jun 1959; Birth County: Alameda.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Reply Report Abuse Print &lt;br&gt;</description>

      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/9919/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Help me help a friend, Tina who is searching for her siblings that were adopted out, I have also posted on sites linked to them, as well as adoption sites. Tina has also posted on diff. adoption boards. Her sisters name at birth was Debra Jean Towler, born 7-23-53 in Merced,CA. Was told that the people who may have adopted her were the surnnames, Walz for the dad, and his wife, maiden name Parker, we have no first names for the adopted parents, if they were in fact the adoptive parents. Trying to find out a possible marriage, so we can track her down that way. Debra also had a brother that was adopted out, but as he was born in Ada, Ok. there may be no connection to CA. His name at birth was Guy Lynn Towler, born we think, 11-4-51, that date was in a family bible, but as the grandmother who entered it was elderly, could have been slightly mistaken on the month and day. The birth parents to both children were Cleburn Spence Towler and Hazel Marie (Boyd)Towler. They were divorced in 54, and Cleburn has since passed away, not sure what ever happened to Hazel. Hazels' mom was named Adele(Adelle?)Boyd?, and either Hazel or her mom had a brother named, Billy Boyd. If anyone could help find any leads on this family, it would be much appreciated.</description>

      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10092/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I'm trying to help a friend, Tina locate her half siblings that were adopted out, they shared the same father. Her brother was born Guy Lynn Towler, born 11/4/51(we think), in Ada OK, or at least adopted out there. Her sister was born Debra Jean Towler 7/23/53, in Merced CA., although we think she may have also been adopted out of OK, since she is younger than Guy. The birth parents for both children were Cleburn Spence Towler, and Hazel Marie (Boyd) Towler. If any of this rings a bell with anyone, please contact me at &lt;a href="mailto://cfischelli@yahoo.com"&gt;cfischelli@yahoo.com&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <description>I am helping my fiance's mom try to locate her birth mother. She was born Kathy Williams in Des Moines IA on March 28, 1954. She was adopted through Iowa Children's Home Society at 2203 Grand Ave in Des Moines on June 16,1961. Her mother was of Irish, Welsh and English descent and was 29 years old when she had her. Any information someone might have if they are looking for a sister or their daughter please email me at &lt;a href="mailto://majikgirlie@yahoo.com"&gt;majikgirlie@yahoo.com&lt;/a&gt;. It was a private adoption and she is unable to get any information. I have it figured that the birth mother was born around 1929 and she had the last name Williams. </description>

      <title>Looking for family members - Helen Louise McBride IL </title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10147/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I am looking for anyone who knows anything about Helen Louise McBride from St Clair County IL who gave birth to a child (male) in 1929. My father is the birthchild who was given up for adoption. I belive she was young and unmarried at the time. If anyone knows anything about her or any family members that I can talk to please email me. Someone has the other copy of his birth certificate and adoption papers and someone knows something about this person who gave birth. Hopefully she gave her correct name but any leads would be appreciated. &lt;br&gt;Dori Richardson&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="mailto://georgendori@yahoo.com"&gt;georgendori@yahoo.com&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <description>I am searching for my cousin, Gary Howard, b. approx 1952. Adopted by Ken and Helen Howard when he was about 5 years old. Gary married early and was in the army for awhile. With such a common name it's been very difficult to find him. I want to let him know who his biological family is as I know that he asked our grandmother about his family and she never gave him an answer. &lt;br&gt;</description>

      <description>ISO siblings.  I was born as HARRISON L. TAYLOR, 10-31-41, Beardstown, IL, to unknown TAYLORs.  I have 4 siblings, all older than me, one of whom is named PATSY.  She was born about 1935 or 1937, and adopted by Charles and Margaret CARR of Metamora, IL, when she was about 2 years old, no later than 1939.  I believe our parents are now deceased, but want very much to contact my siblings.  I was the baby of the family as far as I know, and thinking the others might not even know I was born.  I'm really hoping to find them.</description>

      <description>Hi, I am 37 years old, and my sister and I have been looking for our half sisters for a lot of years.  Our father is their father, Wayne Davis Acker. We know they were adopted out of the family.  They were with our Fathers first marriage.  I believe her name was Mary Ann, and they had a half sister with her, and there were 3 of them.  I don't exactly remember my half sisters names, but if you have any info on them, I would really apreciate it.  We would love to get to know you.  My name is Edith Acker, phone number is 816-223-9297, and address is 721 Rock st.  Weston MO, 64098.  email address &lt;a href="mailto://ackeredith@yahoo.com"&gt;ackeredith@yahoo.com&lt;/a&gt;.  He was born on Oct. 15, 1933, in Colorado.  In case you are wanting to meet our Dad, I thought I would let you know our Father died back in 1999.  Hope to get ahold of you.  God bless you.</description>

      <title>Surprise sibling's card at City Clerk's office in Vermont</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/10120/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I found an index card and birth certificate for a sibling my mother was never told about.  She spent most of her childhood in foster care so I was always suspicious, so I started at City Hall and went on a scavenger hunt.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There was a notation on the card, "Burlington," meaning he was not born in my mother's hometown. I contacted the Lund Family Center via e-mail with my findings and they never responded.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am considering going to Burlington City Hall and looking at the bound chronological birth records for him.  Does anyone have experience doing this they wish to share?  I was wondering if this is simply a case of finding a baby boy born on the same day at the same time of my uncle to learn his adopted name. Is that information preserved exactly, or are the date and time of birth slightly altered, to prevent snoops like me finding an adopted relative?</description>

She is white. She married him in Jan. 1969 in a Lutheran church in South Bend, IN. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Her name was Diane. His name is Jose Orozco. These two had a child together named Annette who was born in July of 1969. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please contact me if you know of this other sibling or any information. I would be a older half sister to this person. Thank you.</description>

Supposeably a nurse adopted him. After birth he was transferred to St. Johns Hospital in Springfield, IL. Given name was Michael Joseph Kessinger. People said only changing the last name but really have no clue. Have a SSN but is it still good? It says Kessinger on it still.</description>

      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/5793/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>My Father was Derwood Clark. He once showed me a picture taken in 1977 of his ex-girlfriend and her daughter. I'm guessing her daughter was about my age. Somewhere between 16 and 20 years old. This girl looked very much like me. At the time I blew it off. I am now 47 and have looked at the photo again. I'm pretty positive, this girl is my half sister. I know they were in Des Moine, Iowa. The girls name is Barbara, I'm sure her parents are no longer alive, like mine. I'm thinking my Dad and her mom must have gotten together about the same time I was conceived. Probably the late 50's or early 60's. My dad had told me he had spent the night with this woman the night before he married my mom. This was 1945. I think they must have met up somewhere over the years. He never said this was his daughter, he figured I had no interest in knowing. At this time I have no last names. The girl's aunt's name was Eileen. Anyone have any idea who thi is, or how I might find Barbara?</description>

      <title>ISO Josephine and Christina Lackner/Lakner/Lockner</title>
      <link>http://boards.Ancestry.com.au/topics.adoption.bfamilies/9744/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I am looking for my mother inlaws sibblings. I know that there names were Josephine and Christina, and that one was born in 1941- probably in Duluth,MN. There mother's name was Frances Lackner. Although, the family spells the last name three differnet ways (Lakner,Lackner,Lockner) , and I am not sure which spelling would have been used. I believe that Josephine and Christina were first placed in foster care, and I am unsure as to whether they were adopted or not.</description>
