A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Minnesota Who Chose To Be Featured
1216. DeanaH : I am searching on behalf of my aunt (maiden name Farmer) who gave up her daughter for adoption in Minnesota in 1973. The county was Todd, the location of birth, Staples, the hospital United District Hospital, the doctor, V. James Thompson. My aunt received prenatal care in a clinic in Lakewood. Her daughter’s first name may be Kimberly.
1218. Rohr0005 : Birth name is Ashley Alan Senn, born in Alexandria, MN. Catholic Charities of St. Cloud, MN handled the adoption. Birth mother is Barbara Senn. Birth father was Ricky Walters. Maternal grandparents were Ralph & Beatrice Senn.
1219. Wonderinginmn : I was born Aug 25th 1973, my older sister Tracy was born March 3rd 1972, we were taken away from our parents Ron Schreifels and Carol Niezgocki by social services in 1975 when I was 2, we got adopted together in 1977 when I was 4 by Clifford and Phyllis Talberg, when I turned 19 we met our real mom carol, she told us that after we were taken away she had 2 more girls, not sure if they had the same dad or different, one of her husbands was Frank Naggo, after him she was married to a Eric Geschke, our younger half sisters were named Kimmy and Kelly, dont know if their names were changed or not or what their last names are, I am almost 46 so they would maybe 43/44 and 44/45, that’s all I know.
1221. Stacyknutson : My great-grandmother lived in Mendota‚ Minnesota‚ and had a child that she gave up for adoption between 1917 and 1922. She had another baby out of wedlock in 1923‚ which was my grandmother‚ and she was able to keep her. However‚ we do not know anything about the baby that was put up for adoption (exact year/date of birth‚ gender‚ when the adoption was finalized‚ etc.). My grandmother was born in a maternity home in St. Paul‚ so it’s possible the first baby was born there as well‚ but we aren’t sure about that.
1222. Nancyroden : I am a female born August 18,1966 at St Mary’s Hospital St. Paul MN. Told I am Italian,English,Irish. I was 6 days old when my adoptive parents picked me up.
1223. Mdefore : I was adopted through what is now Lutheran Social Services in Minneapolis, MN. On my adoption letter, my adopted mother wrote the name of Donna Altier from Cottonwood County, MN. I was told that my biological mother had an invalid mother and that is why she gave me up. Also told that my biological father probably does not know I exist.
1225. H3miandmookeyM333 : I can’t remember the actual birthdate😢. But, I believe my daughter was born on Novemebr 17th and placed in foster care on November 19th.
Her adoption was finalized I think the second or 3 week of December. I wish my brain could remember these important dates. But, I draw a blank.
My Daughters Birth Name was Rebecca Ann Thom.
St. Anbar Hospital, Moorhead, Minnesota through LSS
1226. Laynemoon : Adopted through Children’s Home Society, but don’t know the actual agency name in conjunction with Children’s Home Society. Parents who adopted me Norman Stokely Moon and Joanne Layne Moon. Adopted in St. Paul, MN in Ramsey county I believe.
1227. Missyousweetie : Your name I gave you was Holly Lynn Brawn. That was your name before you were adopted. I gave you up for adoption in Concord, NC in 2016. You were born October 2, 2015 at CMC Northeast in NC.
1228. JasmineAyers : I don’t know much about my brother. Except that as far as I know he was adopted before I was born. We shared the same father, brad Ayers, but had different mothers. He was around 2 or 3 when I was born so I would say he probably was born in 1997 or 1996.
1230. Jenneealexa : I am looking for a full or half brother. He was born in Minnesota on July 13th‚ 1978. He was born in Edina‚ Minnesota. He was adopted around the age of 6 weeks-6 months old. The adoption was through Lutheran Social Services. Birth mothers name would be Pamela Dvorak.
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.
