1158. Tabitha0911 : My dad Monroe was stationed in San Diego California with the US Marines in either 1973-1975 (?). He had claimed that he met a woman while in the marines‚ who became pregnant with his child. The only name that was ever mentioned was Jacqueline “Jackie”. My grandmother Ola had a picture of this little girl it was black and white‚ and on the bottom it said Jacqueline “Jackie” Morris. I cannot remember for sure but she was around the age of 2 or 3 with dark hair‚ & I believe had a dress on with a crochet shawl on‚ if I remember correctly. My dad was from southern Illinois at the time of his entry‚ although born in Caruthersville‚ MO. He enlisted into the Marine Corps at 17-18yrs of age. My dad has passed and I have no further information. I’ve included his Marine photo and hope that this may trigger a response.

1164.

The agency got shut down and I barely got any of the promised updates but on the last one the agency failed to remove my daughters last name. I know she was named Bridget A Riley. I had named her Susan Alexandria when she was born. Other than that I only know her parents names and they were suppose to be on the East Coast and he worked for IBM, Larry & Debbie Riley were the names I was given for the adoptive parents. I have reason to believe they may have lived in New York or possibly New Jersey.
Thank you,
1165. SarahWilliamsLeedy : I am searching for my daughter. She was placed for adoption and it was suppose to be an open adoption the agency closed and closed any communication between me and her parents. I do know her name is Bridget Alys Riley and her adoptive parents were Deborah and Larry Riley her mother’s maiden name is listed as Lane on the birth records I found online. When I last heard anything about her or them her father Larry was employed at IBM.
1166. TennesseeRain : Hailey I am your sister Calie. Our father Scott did not do such a great job. My mom left him and so did yours. I was sad to find out that you and my brother Jacob were taken away by the state. I would love to meet you!
1167. Savannahjaggers28 : My daughter was born 7/17/15. Name aries nicole curtsinger.
Had contact with you until you turned two then the state wrongly cut all communication
1168. Kelland8 : I was born in Fayette county, Lexington, Kentucky August 20th 1974 & I was named Sherry Johnson.
I was later in a foster home and then adopted. I have no other information or knowledge about my birth situation other than my adoptive father telling me my birth mom was young- which isn’t it much, also- either the girls last name was Johnson or the birth fathers was. I am searching for birthparents but any siblings would be fine also.
My name was changed when I was adopted. -Kelly
1170. JamieMBrown : My sister’s last known name before adoption was Tiffany Marie Kidwell. All I know is she was adopted by her foster parents. Her birth mom is Mary Ann Kidwell and her dad was Ronald Cotton. She may remember her step dad known as Mike Pierce.
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.
