A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within North Carolina Who Chose To Be Featured
1696. Maryann007 : Looking for a child, male/female born approx. January 5, 1971 in Cleveland County, NC. Gave birth to only one baby, but was told by head nurse going into labor that x-rays showed twins & first one coming breach. Doctors never told me I was having twins. I was separated from husband at the time. I asked doctor before c-section and doctor denied I was having twins and got very upset. Head nurse was sent home. Two weeks after birth, I returned to hospital and requested to see my x-rays and were told they had been "lost"!!! My medical records had been misplaced also. Found out a year later that this clinic was trying to get women to give up children so wealthy couples could adopt them. In other words, they were selling babies. I believe it is possible I had twins of which one was stolen from me by these doctors and sold. Possibly adopting parents knew nothing about baby being stolen. Child would have round face, blue or green eyes, sandy blonde hair, beautiful. This is a long shot I know, but I have dreamed about another child so often I must learn the truth. Been searching since 1971.
1699. Irishmist : Several years ago, through Ancestry.com, I was successful in contacting siblings of both maternal and paternal birth parents. However, I am also interested in learning more about extended birth families.
1700. Kitchenlady : I would like to find birth parents and siblings. My date of birth is 6/18/65. My adoption took place in eastern North Carolina.

The boys were taken home from the hospital by their adoptive parents. Adoption was handle by an adoption agency that was in Rocky Mount, NC. Their birth names were Thomas Wayne and Jeremy Wayne (I believe those names are right). Baby A born at 9:53 19 1/2 inch 6lbs and Baby B born at 9:52 20 1/2 inch 7lbs. Birth mom lived in Weldon, NC.
1703. Ogl066 : I am searching for my birth siblings born in VA or NC. Possibly born in South Hill, South Boston or Danville, Va. Bio mother’s name was Charlcie Gaylena O’Quinn. Her DOB was 5/15/1942. She is now deceased. There were possibly five of us given up for adoption sometime between 1966 and 1978-1979.

1709. Jifbentley : I am looking for my niece, my sister’s baby that was put up for adoption. The baby was born in Charlotte, NC and my sister stayed at the Florence Crittenton home for unwed mothers in Charlotte, NC while pregnant. My sister, Bobbie, was 17 yrs old, white. The biological father was also white. She named the baby Chrissy, but I’m sure her name was changed. I have always thought of this precious child and want to make sure she is doing well and had a happy life, she is completely loved by our entire family.
