A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Missouri Who Chose To Be Featured
166. Mamapaula57 : I was born as Jeanette Kay Lane. I Believe in Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. on November 15, 1957 & I was adopted when I was 4 months old to a family named Vernon C. & Chloe I. Smith from Richland, Mo. My adopted parents changed my name to Paula Kay Smith. I would love to find my birth parents or any family to them. I just found out yesterday my birth mother’s name is Twalla Mae Lane. She was from Dixon, Mo. at the time of my birth. She was 19 years old. I believe she married a man by the last name of Warneke. I would appreciate all and any help I could get. Thank you and God Bless all us Adopted ones.
167. Widmann : My paperwork says baby boy Dixon and states that my grandfather was a railroad worker and then a carpenter and my grandmother was a customer service clerk, and I had an uncle who was in a wheelchair and died at the age of 22. My mother was 29 at the time of my birth and I had 2 brothers and a sister.
169. Withany : My mother Dorothy Savage of Bedford Iowa gave up a newborn girl baby when my mom was 16 years old. The child was born in or around Maitland, MO and named her Lydia. The birth was in September or October of 1951
170. PetersonDouglas : Don’t really know much about the adoption, was told about it when I was very young, but what I know is that I was adopted when I was 2 days old by Anastasia and Kevin Peterson in St. Louis, MO. Wish I knew more, I think it was at St Mary’s Hospital, but i’m not 100% on that.
171. Jpcampb : My birth name was Barbara Jo Hopkins. My birth mother’s maiden name was Virginia Frances Adams. She was 21 years old when I was born. Adoption arrangements were made through the Catholic Church in or near Joplin‚ Missouri. It’s likely that my birth parents are not alive as I am 78 years old now. If indeed they are alive‚ that would make longevity a family trait I guess. I would like to know who my parents were and what their situation was that steered them toward adoption. I would love to know if I have any brothers or sisters. I think my birth mother might have been Virginia Cavanagh but have no confirmation of that.
172. Amhsanders : I placed my daughter for adoption through Catholic Charities. She was born on August 20th, 1990 at Independence Regional Healthcare. The Doctor was Dr. Roy D. Goerz.

176. JaquaVeua17kcmo : Desperate mother in search of for her child. Black female about 16 Year’s old now and may have braces on her legs and in a wheelchair. She has a birth mark on her left ear that looks like or could be a mole or a little hole , she also was born with red bumps on her body and also had jaundice also she had a green butt with mole because i ate alot of guacamole when I was pregnant with you lol. I can’t remember the medical terms for it. But she was a premature infant at time of birth 1lbs and 9oz. I was 15 Year’s old when she was conceived and I was 16 Year’s old on her very 1St. Birthday so i can say i am so grateful & happy that we were able to spend your first birthday with me. Praise God! I’m sorry for missing out on everything you have accomplished in your life and I hope that your health has got better since the last time we saw each other you probably don’t remember me because you was just an infant at the time and you were just one years old. But I hope you can find in your heart to reach out to me so we can get to know each other a little bitter. Please don’t be bitter I can’t wait till we meet again. I love you and will always love you no matter how many directions my life take me through. Here’s a picture of u at 1years old looking like me lol.
