1998. Phelpslp : Looking for a half sister born at St Mary Hospital from Bethel Home of unwed girls in April 1954. My Mother‚ Marlene was 17 at the time. Shows her birth name as Roberta Ann Gregg. Love to find you sis.
2000. Brokenwithoutyousinc : She is my step daughter that I raised from 10 months old until she was 9!! She grew up with my 2 sons as her brothers and I had her half sister when she was 5. They took her and adopted her out in 2018 work the reasoning being I’m not blood related and I was never legally married to her dad!! She is 15 now! We have not seen or talked to her since 2017!!!
2001. Lborla063 : I went to visit Seoul Korea where I was born once. I was adopted to Rochester‚ MN. I was brought over by 2 servicemen.
I was left near an orphanage near a college. I believe I was at sung roh babies home. The organization that I was affiliated with was something children’s society.
The info I have is so vague.
My name was hye eun yang.
I don’t know anything as I was left at the orphanage doorstep.
Today I am currently 37 years old.
2002. TMatthews0731 : He was actually 7 yrs old when he got adopted with his younger sister. His birth name is aiden Joseph Russell Weston born in souix falls sd and his sister was Abigail Annmarie Beeler and she was 5 and was born in messa Arizona. We were living in Windom Minnesota when they were adopted.
2003. SerenaBevan : I was told I had a sister. I don’t know her name or anything else about her. Our birth Father’s name was Lawrence Naranjo. He stuck to Colorado and Kansas mainly as far as I know. That she could have been adopted to be anywhere from 1964 to 1980 because I’m not sure if she was older or younger than myself. I think she was younger but I’m just covering my basics. I have done then DNA through ancestry DNA. Nothing has come up through that yet
2006. Rave1bar : I was placed for adoption through Catholic Charities in St Paul‚ MN. My birth mother’s first name is Susan‚ and her mother/my grandmother lived in either Rome or Paris‚ WI.

Unsure of Christopher’s father’s name if it was on the birth certificate or not.

2010. Barb1961 : I’m hoping to connect with my daughter‚ who I named Marie Louise. She was born in Minneapolis‚ MN‚ at what was then St. Mary’s. She was adopted through Children’s Home Society. I was told that the family that adopted her would keep "part" of the name that I gave her. I lived with my aunt in Hopkins MN‚ since I was from northern MN at the time‚ and there weren’t any adoption agencies except for the county. I didn’t think I would be able to appear in a court to renounce my baby‚ and CHSM allowed for a legal adoption without having to appear in court. It is my greatest wish to meet my daughter again.
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.
