257. Precious2 : I’m looking for a man born Kenneth Owens Hanson. He was born to Claire Hanson and Thomas Owens in Lowell, Ma. He’s around 70 or 71 years old now.
259. LeeChase : I know who my birth mother is. I am searching for the truth about my birth father. The man who I called "Dad", who raised me since I was a baby, I have reason to believe is not my birth father. When I was a teen, I found a legal document denouncing parental rights to a man named Roger A. Worth from Lowell, Massachusetts. I would like to have confirmation of this adoption, or surrender of parental rights, since my parents are unwilling to discuss any aspect of this.
260. Kate92485 : Was adopted in Springfield,MA at or around the time of birth. Adoptive parents lived in Springfield and Hinsdale and were named Harold and Rita.
263. KatieLeach80 : My Father passed away on November 15th from Pancreatic Cancer, he was adopted and always his wish to meet his birth mother and see of he had siblings ect.
My sister and I are trying to honor him by continuing the search on his behalf
264. DPMaguire : I am trying to locate the son who was born to my father and some unknown woman, sometime between 1958 and 1961. My father signed off on the adoption of the male child but I don’t really know anything beyond that. I have no way of knowing the exact days or years. My father’s name was David Paul Maguire.
265. AbbyG : My father, William Kenneth Swinnerton was adopted in Boston, Mass. in 1926. He was adopted by William H. and Nancy Swinnerton who lived in West Roxbury, Mass. My father passed away this past May 2016 at 90 without us ever knowing his real parents. He began a search in public records as a young man but stopped at finding his mother’s last name at his birth was McAlpine. It was believed she was a Scottish nurse. She allegedly moved to Florida at some point. That is all we know about him. Dad and Mom had 5 children, 13 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. I am his daughter, Gail. All his children would really like to trace his roots and know who our grandparents are.
266. Helena711 : I am looking for some history on my mother who has since passed away. She was born in Boston and put in the home for the little wanderers. I believe her birth mother’s name was Nelly Costin.
267. Dianeholey : Corey Gross was his birth name. My mother took him in as a foster child through Catholic Charities for six years in Lynn, Massachusetts. His name was changed to Tommy Gibbons I believe. We loved him so much and I often wonder what happened to him. My mother’s name was Yolanda Signor.
268. Liltwo31 : my life has had an empty hole since the day I let you go and nothing or no one has been able to fill it. Brigham and woman’s hosp brighton, ma is where you were born and crittenton and hastings house in brighton, ma and the florence crittenton league in lowell, ma is whom handled the adoption.
269. Kprob : Birth certificate shows, born at Samuel Merritt Hospital Oakland CA.
Adoption may have taken place around August, but not necessarily.
Birth certificate is listed as a reissue.
270. Joandbob : Looking for a girl born December 24, 1981 in Framingham, MA at Framingham Union Hospital. Name was changed from what I named her to Jillian Noel (Christmas Eve baby). I think about her every day but when I did try to contact her through the adoption agency in 1997 she was not interested in seeing me. I hope as she had got older she may have some interest. Agency is international adoption agency in Newton, MA. Girl is American Caucasian
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.
