He wants nothing from them other than to know where he came from. He holds no animosity towards them and is very understanding. We met when we our families were stationed together
in Quantico VA, we were neighbors and became friends. We recently found out that we are 3rd or 4th cousins through Ancestry.com/DNA. Thank you.
186. Kinderfairy : I recently learned I was adopted in 1960. I was raised in Maryland. My birth mother’s last name may have been Simpson. I was born in Washington DC but raised in Maryland.
188. TFB_Eric : I am searching for the adoption of my father’s sister. She would have been adopted from The Bell Home for Children, in the Anacostia area of Washington D.C. between 1903 and 1910. The Bell Home for Children became The Episcopal Home for Children (she may have been placed in another home). I have no idea of her first name but last name would have been Hardesty. She was suppose have been adopted by a doctor and his wife between the above dates, became a nurse and married a doctor her self.
I have very little information on who their parents would have been my father was born between 1903-1906. Both children were taken from the parents because of neglect from the complaint of a neighbor.

191. SalaciousCrumpet : Seeking cousins I barely remember. You were born Jesse Stanton in or near Chicago IL, somewhere around 1975-1976, to parents Ron and Vicki/Victoria, and you have a younger sister named Sabrina. My name is Rhonda. Ron’s sister Dixie is my mother, which makes us cousins by blood, though we were probably all too young to remember.
While I am in touch with Ron occasionally, and know his whereabouts, I am absolutely NOT here to push you to get in touch with your birth father if you don’t want to. I am not at all in touch with my own, so I understand if you prefer to stay anonymous. I’m just putting this out there because I don’t have a lot of family and I’m curious about your lives... hoping you grew up with fantastic parents and had a lot of fantastic days. And if not... we can always share stories of how we overcame. :) Either way - I hope lives right now are as happy and entertaining as can be, and I hope to hear from you.

193. Greekgal1 : My mother gave birth to a baby girl approximately 50 years ago at Columbia Hospital for women in Washington DC, which is no longer there. Birth records were archived and sealed. My parents are deceased, as is the doctor that delivered the baby. Everything was kept secret from my family because my mother was 47 or 48 years old, and was terribly embarrassed to have a change of life baby. Parents names: Mary Nanos and Gus (Kostas or Constantine) Nanos. I am desperate to find her. I have been searching for several years.
194. KBrentner : Searching for information on birth parents and/or family of baby girl born at Walter Reed Army Hospital in 1950. Birth date may actually have been adoption date 5/30/1950. Adopted at 5 days old. Private Adoption. Baby girl was called "Suzie". Adopted by Klostermann family.

Supposed my mother’s family had medical background and may have been a physician.

That is all I know about 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.
