322. Mamiof5mimi : I’m looking for my daughter who was adopted sometime after December 2019. Her name before adoption was Che’-La’-Aru Raye Gallion-Pacheco. She was born December 6th 2013 at Christiana Care Hospital in Newark Delaware. She lived with me in Dover Delaware before being taken by dfs in August 2016. I was never given the opportunity nor was I informed about the possibilities of open adoption.
323. Per.Fred.A : STEVE‚ you were adopted through the Catholic adoption agency. Didn’t know that I had a child until for about 15 years after the fact. The adoption most likely happened in SD through the Catholic adoption agency. I believe that baby was a male with a possible name of Steve (not confirmed) I worked for her dad on a farm within 15 miles from Parkston‚ we developed a relationship I was 20 or 21 mother was 16 or younger.
325. Alicemarieharrigan : I was born in Elkton Md. I know that my father is Wallace Harrigan who passed away in 1972. I believe that my birth mother is associated with the Eastridge Family. I Know that I have a sister that was born after me that was also given up for adoption.
327. HermanCDingle : I am looking for the adoption records or Birth name of my Grandmother, her name is Laura Cordelia Carty, born in New Castle,Delaware in 1896. Her adopted mother’s name was Rachel M Carty, her adopted father’s name is Isaac E Carty. They lived at 1900 Wilmington ward 12, New Castle, Delaware in 1900.
328. U263934 : My father was born Sept. 28, 1950 in Austin, TX. He was white and his parents were white. There was the name of Albert Alsenz listed as his father but I think that might not be true. I am almost positive the mother was Alice Marie Lane Alsenz. Albert was born in 1911 in Brooklyn, NY and Alice in 1927 in Shandaken, NY. Both parents stated they had other children from other relationships either already adopted out or in foster care waiting for papers to be signed so they can be adopted. The only indication of where these children are is the mother said she had a child in foster care ’up east’ with the parents wanting to adopt the child which may have been a boy. The Alsenz’s lived in Austin, TX in 1950-1952 and in Kansas in 1956. The Kansas census has a Donald and a Jack Alsenz listed as being with them. I don’t think these were Alice’s children. I think they were the children of Albert and a Ruth Kniffen Alsenz Hartman Olsen now buried in New Orleans, and they were visiting with Albert and Alice, with Ruth being the person in charge of them. Let me know of any info, please, by sending a message.
329. Tabby099 : Looking for brother that was born at st edward mercy medical center september 25‚1976 8 lbs 2 ounces at 10:21am. The adoption may have been finalized in another state. I have looked everywhere. Very closed adoption cannot get any information.
