274. ASWillard : Hello.
I am searching for a birth half sibling, whom my 17 year-old mother was forced to give up for adoption in late 1967. I believe but am not certain that she gave birth after staying at the Episcopal House of Mercy Home for Unwed Mothers in Washington, DC. My mother’s last name was Wilson, the father’s last name was Denhardt and they both were from the Midwest.
Thank you very much.

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.
