A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Massachusetts Who Chose To Be Featured
1936. Baby2011 : Baby Girl Sheridan was born on Oct 13, 2011 at Boston Medical Center, Boston, Ma. She is half Irish and half Asian. Given up for adoption almost immediately. Desperate to find her
1937. Johannadamato : I WAS BORN APRIL 1978 AT PROVIDENCE HOSPITAL IN HOLYOKE, MA. I AM LOOKING FOR BIRTH MOTHER AND FATHER THAT I BELIEVE TO BOTH BE 54 YEARS OF AGE. I HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF MORE DETAILS FOR CONFIRMATION.
1939. Annie70 : he was born on or around 10/20/1982 either at lawrence general hospital in Lawrence Ma or Holy family hospital. (which at time of birth may have been called Bon Secur hospital) in methuen Ma
birth mother last name i think was Burns, birth father’s last name is Ampollone. we were told he was adopted by a doctor and his wife who the doctor practiced in the area. the baby was born with the first name of either the spelling of Steven or Stephen.
the birth father is my brother who has been looking for his birth child for sometime with no success.
1940. Jenniferc86 : When he was born his name was Paul ahern born 3/15/85 in mass. Maryann ahern was your birth mother. I heard you could be in Worcester or that’s where you lived growing up. I have no more information
1941. Tracyadkisson : My birth mom Kathleen Edgehille was born 9/19/1947 in Massachusetts to an unwed mother named Ruth Edgehille . She was adopted by her birth moms brother William G. Edgehille at an early age. Day before adoption was to be finalized Ruth kidnapped Kathy and ran asay to Idaho where they were caught and Kathy was returned to adoptive parents in Massachusetts. I am aware of a birth certificate with birth fathers name that was kept hidden but disappeared after the adoptive parents passed away. My mom passed in 2014 and I just want to find out who her birth father was or at least other ways to go about finding this info.
1942. Jenniferc86 : I am looking for my sister Jessica . She was adopted at a young age. I heard she was living in stoneham ma. We lived in Woburn ma for a short time with our mother Maryann ahern
1944. 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.
1945. MotningGlory : The person’s name is Barbara Louise Swett. She was adopted in Brighton Massachusetts. She said that she was adopted as an infant as far as she knows. The couple who adopted her was Gladys Swett and Norman P Swett from Gloucester, MA USA. I am her daughter.
