Brother Jimmy. Born in DW Dec 10‚ 1967 i am a faternal twin with Teresa. Adopted at age 4 along with twin by David and Patricica Schroeder. My name was changed to Margaret Terry and twins name changed to Kathrine Theresa.
439. Mark19803 : Tall‚ white male. Adopted from a now-defunct Catholic adoption agency. Grew up in Delaware.
I believe I was two days old upon adoption and it was a closed adoption. Don’t have many clues to work with but I’m eager to learn more.
441. TracyRN71 : I am looking for someone who was born at St. Anne’s home for unwed mothers in Los Angeles‚ likely in 1965 or 1966. I do not know if the baby was a boy or girl. I don’t have much to go on!
443. TPEAML : Looking for birth name Angelina Michelle‚ one of two sisters adopted out. Name may have been changed. Sisters were born in 2004 and 2005 in Florida.
446. JM2126 : Hi I am looking for a sibling born 9/12/63 in Delaware born to a teenage mother Andrea Stefanick at a home for girls. This person was born at a Delaware hospital.
447. StormvdW : My situation is challenging since my mother used a name that she had when she was married several years before I was even an egg+sperm. I was born in San Juan Puerto Rico on January 15‚ 1965. In 1967 when I was about 18 months old my mother came with her new husband. They returned to Delaware from my understanding and the adoption I was always told to place in Wilmington delaware. That said I was never able to find an adoption certificate that showed where the adoption took place. The only paper I had was a photo static copy of the adoption paperwork. That was later lost in a storage unit that was auctioned off. I have always had a valid passport since I was very young however that has since expired. It is more than 10 years old. I need to find my proof of adoption so that I can get a new passport/ real id. I tried to get this taken care of through getting paperwork from Social Security for the last 3 years but have never been able to get the paperwork even though I paid for it twice. I would appreciate any help I can get.
449. Kimcorrigan : Would like to know if my birth mother is still alive so I can thank her for‚ what in the end‚ was the right decision. I’d also like to know if I have any siblings.
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.
