Email Address: dnorcal@gmail.com
All Other Information: Abstract Birth Record 216 (stamped on back) of card. It was a private adoption, she told my Father, Thomas Albert Norman-her 1st husband-she was 6 years old and remembers being in the orphanage and remembers being adopted. The State File No. 2513  The record was filed in 11-?-1939.  The abstract was issued 10-7-1958. She died in Douglas County, Oregon in 8-?-1972 in a car accident. She had remarried, Eldon Wayne Patterson. Had two daughters by Thomas A Norman. Tamera Inez Norman 12-10-1957.  Dana Raye Norman 6-23-1960.  And a daughter Donna Marie Patterson with her 2nd husband.  8-28-1968. State Health Officer on her abstract was Harold M. Erickson MD. State Registrar was Marion Martin. (Update) Have never known any information about the Birth Parents. Sharon Kay McCormack had hazel eyes, and light brown hair. I basically know absolutely nothing about the birth mother or birth father or any other birth family, nothing about what they looked like only that she was given up for adoption & recalled being old enough to remember being in an Orphanage. On the abstract it says Portland, Oregon as birth city and state. But on the Social Security Death Index it says Suffolk (West Virginia ?) (Massachusetts ?).

All Other Information: My father  James Hearst, deceased in 2001, was born in Wheeling, WV of a Jewish mother in 1946. My grandmother  Sally Hearst says that the adoption was handled by David S. Hearst, her husband and attorney. They lived in Weirton, WV.  She said that she had him home with her only 12 days after his birth and that he was a Jewish baby, which was very important to them. I'd like to learn all that I can about his birth parents and their birth family history and ethnic background.
(Update) I know nothing about birth mother or birth father. James Hearst was between 5'9” and 5'10” tall, he had blue eyes and blonde hair.

All Other Information: The parents were unmarried at the time she became pregnant. The birth father was sent to war, and birth mother's parents forced her to give the baby up. They later married and had three more sons.  There was a three year old girl from mother's previous marriage. Both parents are deceased and never told before their deaths; therefore there is basically no information to go on. The sister said she thought the birth mother was sent to Huntington to stay with friends during her pregnancy.

Second was given 5-6-1953 by Dorothy Ruble, Phychologist Division of Child Welfare This is all I know except that my adoptive mother said I had a sister. Both parents are probably dead. They would both be in their ninetys. I would like to know where they lived and how they died. I would be interested in any birth relatives. My adoptive mother never moved after I was adopted so they could have easily found me. My adopted father died when I was nine. I found the adoption decree in the safety deposit box after mother passed. Other information was obtained when I went to Charleston and asked for my medical history. Biological mother had three siblings. One older brother died from pneumonia and a younger brother that died of intentional influenza. Biological mothers occupation was a bookkeeper, her height was 5'7" tall, her hair reddish brown and eyes were gray. Her age at birth 32. Birth father height 5'10" tall, hair was brown and his eyes blue. His age at birth was 35. (Update) I am 5'2" tall, with brown hair and brown hair...well gray now but brown from a bottle. I was adopted two days before my second birthday according to my adopted mother. I have two sons born in 1972 and 1975. Both have brown eyes and light brown hair.

Email Address: barbeevee@comcast.net
All Other Info: Since I am nearly 52, I would imagine that Peggy Mullins & Jack Howard Hatcher were born around or before 1935.  I have no idea whether they are still alive, still together or still in WV.  I am petitioning to have my file opened to find out why a married couple relinquished their child.  I was kept in a boarding home for a year before being adopted out, as though time were granted for a better arrangement to be made within the family.  They did name me before handing me over to the authorities, which I interpret as a gesture of caring.  I would relish learning what my biological folks were/are like as well as our shared medical predispositions.  My now-elderly adoptive mom & dad (ages 87 & 91) have never given me a straight story about my origin, for reasons I do not yet understand. Two weeks ago, I was, quite unexpectedly, notified of my birth parents' names by a kindly archivist, who was reluctant to provide further data. I will be very grateful for any free information that you can round up to shed light on my roots.

All Other Information: After searching on my own for 2 or 3 years, I finally called the Vital Statcies office in Charleston, WV and was told by them that my half brothers adoption took place in Brooke County. Now all I had to do was  find a judge to open the adoption records, easier said than done,  after a long period of time, one judge finally ruled that It was not possible to do. that was in 2009. I wrote another judge in 2010 and the requwar was completely ignored. I was about to write to another judge when I came upon your website. So I thought I give it a chance,

All Other Information: Looking for birth father. I was adopted when I was about 1 year old. Birth mother said birth father asked her to marry, but she refused. She was 19 years old when I was born. She worked at a dry cleaning store and lived on Baines Ct. Delores died in 1999. I have green eyes and blonde hair. I am also left handed. One name brought up as a possiblity is a Jack or Jackie Ward. Delores also married a Earl L Thompson right after I was adopted. I have a granddaughter who is afflicted with some very rare medical conditions, so this search is also for her. She doesn't have a lot of time left.

All Other Information: Amy and Judy have been missing for a long time. My father (Robert Lee) has not seen Amy since she was 4. Other siblings include, Phyllis and Charles (Nicknamed Bud) As far as I know their birth mother died from a bloodclot, and their birth father died from Leukemia. All of the children I believe were adopted out individually. Charles Jr. died a few years ago of a heart attack, in WV, was married to Helen. There is not alot of information, as my father does not know alot of it. (Update) I found alot more information from my dad. The adoptee's name was Amy Carol Lee. She was actually almost 6, and put into foster care.  He does not know if her foster family adopted her or not. The birth mothers name was Mary Catherine Maude Lee (Davis) Father's name was Charles Wilmo Lee. Amy was born in 12-?-1958. Amy had red hair and blue eyes. Mary was 38 when she had Amy. Mary had black hair and brown eyes, Charles had blue eyes and red hair. I am working on getting birthdates, but Mary's were 1918-1963. My fathers (Robert) birthday is 8-15-1950. The other siblings are Phyllis, Charles Jr, Judy, Robert. I will get more information from my Dad as he remembers it. (Update) I have found out that Amy's father was a welder and her mother was a housewife.  Also, their father's cause of death was not leukemia, but pnuemonia.
