Any help or any information would be greatly appreciated.

The birth probably took place at Firmin Desloge (now SLU) hospital and the child was adopted through Catholic Charities within a year of birth. My mother lived at Villa Maria women’s home before giving birth. The father may have been Donald Duffie. The Duffie family lived in Pine Lawn, MO.
