I have no info on The family who would’ve adopted him.
2374. Miseldyne : I am looking for my brother - born in Rochester MN in late 1969 or early 1970. He went into care‚ where my mother contributed to his support‚ until he was adopted (we believe by a black family‚ but not entirely sure) about a year later.

We have no idea who his birth mother is. Or any aunts or uncle or such on that side‚ I have found some dna connections but nothing ever matches up right.
