SeekingMom1944
My Mom was born in St. Louis, Missouri June 12, 1944 and somehow ended up in Springfield, Missouri under the care of an AME church member who may have been like a foster mother. My Mom was to be adopted by a loving farmer family, but a well connected pastor of the AME church from Iowa pulled some string and adopted my Mom instead. He and his wife raised my Mom in the church. She became a protege of the piano by age 6 and records a record sometime during her young years. She was told that her birth mother was a young Cherokee who got pregnant by an older Black serviceman in the military. Thank you for reading this. Here’s to finding family... 🤞🏾
