A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Ethiopia Who Chose To Be Featured
166. Zebibbredesen : I was adopted from Ethiopia to Norway in October 1994 through Adopsjonsforum in Norway. My adoptive parents are Anneli Thorsen and Bjørn Bredesen from Vardø‚ Norway.
According to my adoption documents:
- My Ethiopian name was Zebib (later Zebib Bredesen).
- I was born in Addis Ababa‚ Ethiopia.
- My listed birth date is 7 July 1986‚ although some dates in the documents may have been changed or reissued during the adoption process.
- My adoption case/file number appears to be 702/86.
- My case involved the Ethiopian Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs in Addis Ababa.
- Judge Solomon Lemma is mentioned in the court documents.
- A lawyer named Wzo Assefash G. Silassie represented the adoption case.
- Translation documents were prepared by Yeshimebet Tesfaye Sahile in Addis Ababa.
- My Ethiopian travel document (“Laissez-Passer”) was issued on October 5‚ 1994.
Before the adoption was finalized‚ I may have stayed in a small foster home or children’s home in Addis Ababa called Yelignosh Amba (also possibly spelled Yeligosh Amba or Yelignesh Amba). One document describes it as a small foster home/children’s home where children stayed while waiting to travel to their adoptive families.
Another organization mentioned in my documents is “Children and Youth Affairs Organization.”
I am searching for biological family members‚ relatives‚ caregivers‚ neighbors‚ former staff‚ or anyone who recognizes these names‚ places‚ or details. Even small information could be very helpful in learning more about my background and history.

Am so eager to find my son‚Please support me
I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.

54 years it took us until we found each other. We did a DNA test to confirm! Perfect match. We spent two weeks together and have a blessed, wonderful relationship! We even look alike in so many ways. She is more than I was expecting! Thank you for your website, Adopted.com!
