A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Minnesota Who Chose To Be Featured
2041. PaAr : Burgwinkle‚ Valeri‚ Arsenault‚ Brown‚ could be matched in dna websites showing links.
Catholic agency in Kansas or Missouri‚ is most likely where the birth took place
2043. Member285184 : Searching for sibling of my son. Boy‚ birth name Steven‚ changed to Philip by adoptive parents. He was placed for adoption in April 1993/94 from Hennepin County. Father’s name Christopher Johnson born 10/12/72.
Also in search of my sibling‚ girl placed for adoption through Lutheran Social Services‚ Hennepin County. Birth name Jeannie‚ born November 1979. Mother Jamie Madsen‚ father Kelly Driscoll.
2044. PattiSchwensen : Mary (née Johnson) and Joseph Charles FADDEN gave birth to Mary FADDEN on April 7‚ 1905 per Saint Paul‚ Minnesota birth records. However‚ she was in what we think was a “mother’s home” or home for unwanted children‚ by the Minnesota June 1905 Census. The Fadden’s also had a daughter who was 10 years older‚ named Marie‚ however the story told to me was that Marie’s parents didn’t raise her and she didn’t typically live with her parents‚ but bounced from her grandparents to various aunts & uncles homes.
Mary FADDEN became Charlotte Theodora Moffat (adoptee’s name) and she is my maternal grandmother. She was raised by the Christina and Thomas Moffat of Saint Paul‚ Minnesota. Neither I nor my mom ever knew of Charlotte’s “adoption”‚ if there actually was one…we don’t think Charlotte knew either. Nor am I sure if it was formal and legitimate! I have not been able to find any adoption paperwork‚ however I don’t really know where/how to look for it. The way I even found out about this situation was via my DNA test on Ancestry.com. A cousin connection was made with Karen Svendsen Notley Johnson (who has since sadly passed away).
2045. MDKrogh : I was born in Fairmont‚ MN at the Fairmont Community Hospital. I was born on August 24‚ 1971 at 12:55 a.m. C.D.T. The Doctor that delivered me was Dr. RW Schulz at 121 No. Main St. Fairmont‚ MN.
2046. MDKrogh : I was born in Fairmont‚ MN at the Fairmont Community Hospital. I was born on August 24‚ 1971 at 12:55 a.m. C.D.T. The doctor that delivered me was Dr. RW Schulz at 121 No. Main St. Fairmont‚ MN. I did the ancestry.com DNA testing. The high result matches that I received were Eugene Voyles‚ Erykah Pope (her profile says it is managed by Mishell Sakai) and John Hill. I would love to connect with any of these individuals to find out if we are maybe related in anyway. I would love to learn & meet anyone from my biological side.
2047. MDKrogh : I am searching for my birth mother. I was born in Fairmont‚ MN at the Fairmont Community Hospital. I was born on August 24‚ 1971 at 12:55 a.m. C.D.T. The doctor that delivered me was Dr. RW Schulz at 121 No. Main St. Fairmont‚ MN. I believe my mother’s name is Delby (Debby) Jo Anderson. She was 17 years old when I was born. Her address at the time of my birth was RR #2 Granada‚ MN. My mother was born in Korea. Her race is listed as 1/2 white & 1/2 Korean. I would really love to find her‚ to meet her and learn more about her & my background.
2048. Aliii : Last name possibly Kuhlmann/Kuhlman

Would have been young and not out of school yet. Catholic family possibly SA or very young

Believe it was through a Lutheran Church adoption agency.
Adoption date August 12‚ 1971.
2054. AnneMarieKent : I am the youngest daughter of Robert and Alice Stenstrom. Robert Stenstrom had a son born in late 1949 or early 1950‚ and the child was adopted out.
Robert and Alice had 6 children and 5 are living.
2055. HeidiK19 : A baby boy was born in early October 1965 or 66. In St. Cloud hospital in St. Cloud Minnesota.
Your mother was only 14 years old. Her parents would not let her keep you. They would not even let her see you‚ so she refused to sign the papers until they let her hold you.
You have two younger siblings‚ a brother and me your baby sister.
you were due on October 19 in the year you were born. but you came two weeks early.(I think October 5 )
I was born in 1972 and I was born on your due date.(Turns out you were actually born on my due date)
Your mother was from the Sauk Rapids Mn. area. She is still very much alive and lives in that Her initials would have been JMW at that time.
I wonder all the time if you have the great big doe eyes like both my brother and myself. Our mother has very dark hair and dark eyes‚ but she is very fair skinned.
I hope this finds you ❤️
your baby sister‚ H
