Hi there I hope you can help me....I am turning 49 on August 5 and I am really interested in finding my birth mother.....My name is Denise Renee Barfield currently living in Capetown South Africa.....However i am American,,I was born as Denise Renee Scott in Newark New Jersey Aug 5 1969..At 8 yrs old I found out the people who were raising me was not my parents..and that my real mother abandoned me..along with my sister..I was seperated from my sister and sent to another family....with no information about my mother,,they told me my documents were sealed...I now am not sure if the girl I thought was my sister is actually my sister...Because of the abuse I endured from the family i was adopted by i am not really in contact with them....I remember them telling me what me real mothers name however i do not have my original birth certificate in order to verify...I have done much investigation and actually think I may have found her however if I could get my original birth certificate I could really move forward...This is difficult to do while living here in capetown...The info I have is as following around 1977 I was with Geraldine Dumas/Piscataway New Jersey/She is 86 years old more or less my sisters name was Lori Dumas/married name Edwards she is born Sept 18 shes 46 or 47 I was adopted in about 1980 by Joyce Barfield also in New Jersey but she lives now in North Carolina I do not know the name of the hospital i was born in..I just know it was Essex County,Newark New Jersey On all the sites i have searched i came across someone who fits the time frame/I saw her social media profile and she and her daughter look verry similar to me and my son... Her name is Helen Scott-Leggins she is 70yrs old from Philadelphia (when I was young I remembered a woman who was introduced as an Aunt from Philadelphia..Maybe I was 6 years old..I remember how I cried when she left as a child would for thier mother..this was before I was not aware Mrs Dumas was not my mother...Perhaps this aunt I cried for was my mother saying good bye....It sounds far fetch but there is hope...I can only confirm any of this once I can 100 percent confirm that is her name on my Original birth certificate..One more thing on the search site where I found her name Denise Scott was listed as possible relative..In my heart I am 80% feeling this is my mother because of the similarities but I do not want to be wrong.. Your help would be greatly appreciated.. Denise Renee Scott
