I was not allowed to hold her‚ just look at her through the nursery window. Someone brought my baby back to the Twin Cities to the adoptive family. I have thought about her many‚ many times over the years and how she is doing . I tried one time to find her but was unsuccessful. Recently her birth father contacted me and wants to get in contact with her too.
2437. Dretz822 : Born in Owatonna‚ MN‚ August 22‚ 1968‚ and adopted in the 9mo-1yr range. Birth parent search was not available until recently and adopted family has all passed so I was curious as to what I can possibly pass along to my children and grandchildren. Thank you!
2438. Pikagirl420 : I have very little to go on. Im not even positive if im related. My dad was dating a girl who was pregnant shortly after they broke up. She had the baby and while baby was still very young before my dad could find out if baby was related to us or not‚ the mom died in a car accident my dad said. Im thinking the baby was younger than me (i was born in 2000) but I dont know for sure. My dad's name is Harold Rick and my name is Tashara Anderson. I have 3 more siblings who i have gotten in contact with already. This is the only one that we haven't found yet
2439. LizzyBizzy08 : My name is Elizabeth and I am 17 years old. I am trying to find my Aunt. My grandma gave her up for adoption soon after birth im guessing. She never talks about her.

2444. Christy43 : I am searching for Christian Christenson and his family that moved from Dows‚ Iowa to Chippewa County around 1900. His wife's name was Hansine and she was also a native of Denmark. Christian passed away in Raymond‚ MN in 1912 but had lived in an area called Woods (County‚ maybe)for several years prior to moving to Raymond. Christian was born in 1844 and Hansine was born in 1867. They had a daughter‚ Camilla that was married in Montevideo‚ MN in 1907 to Edward Henry Hopke.
