A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within North Carolina Who Chose To Be Featured
2401. SarahA1956 : I was born in Yancy County (around Burnsville )‚ N.C.‚ on July 29‚ 1956. Was adopted 6 weeks later‚ in Buncombe County (Asheville) ‚ from what I understand.
2411. PreciousJewelsUSA : The adoption was handled by
Nash County Department of Social Service
921 N 1st St‚ Nashville‚ NC 27856
The birth of my daughter may have been at a hospital in Ashville‚ NC. I cannot remember the exact location. It’s been so long ago.

Born at 5:24am

(I’m sure this was most likely changed.)
2413. Lauren826 : PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS! I am searching for my 3 children- 2 female and 1 male. I’ll start with my 2 daughters who are mixed with White/ Caucasian & Spanish. Leighanna & Vanessa were their names I gave them at birth. I am not sure if their names were changed or not. I also don’t know anything else about what happened with their adoption process- When it took place‚ how &/or where it took place‚ nor do I know by who they were adopted. I don’t know how long it took for them to be adopted after they were removed from my care. They were both under a year old when they were taken from me. Each of them was taken at different times shortly after they were born withing the first year of their life. They were NOT taken at the same time nor were they together when they were taken. Leighanna was born on Nov. 1st of 2001 or 2002 (traumas have scattered my memory a lot). Vanessa was born in May (5th?) of 2005. This all took place in the triangle area of North Carolina. They were both born at UNC Hospital.
I am also searching for my son who was born in May of 2008. I named him Christian Diego when he was born. His situation was a little different. Christian was born at what is now called Duke Regional Hospital in Durham NC. Christian was born VERY early and was my miracle baby. He was in the NICU for the first 3-4 months of his life. His race White/Caucasian. Christian was placed with a lady named Martha Whitfield and her husband (I think his name was Bob?) They were an older couple in their 50’s or early 60’s and would allow me to see him all the time. They were denied in adopting Christian. The state said they were ’too old’. They were originally from New York‚ and they had so much previous experience with fostering and adopting. It broke their hearts and mine too when they were turned down. To my knowledge‚ a couple in Raleigh NC ended up adopting him. I’ve never met them‚ nor have I seen Christian for years‚ nor do I know anything about his whereabouts since. To my knowledge‚ Martha has passed away. I’m not sure about her husband. I know this is a lot of information‚ but it’s all the information I have to provide in my search‚ which in return will hopefully result in finding at least one of them. It would be absolutely beautiful to find all 3 of them. Thank you SO kindly for reading!!!
2414. Chadley : Im searching for my father’s birth mother‚ father‚ and family.
He was born December 14th 1970
Somewhere in North Carolina I believe it began with a W but not positive.
I was told he was adopted when he was 2 years old by his adoptive parents (Maria Ballard & Earl Ballard) and brought him to live in Columbia South Carolina. They named him (Maximilian Earl Ballard)
They already had a 3 year old daughter who they previously adopted as well named Diana Ballard.
My father passed away when I was 18 on February 5th 2008 he was 42 years old.
His adoptive birth certificate says he was Caucasian but I believe he was half indian and white. He had tan skin with dark brown thick hair‚ crystal blue eyes‚ 5’9 in height‚ pretty stalky like a football player with wide feet.
The only other information I was told about his maternal mom was that she was like 16 years old and didn’t want him.
2415. WilliamHinnant : Was born and raised in Wilmington and Leland North Carolina I had two sisters and a brother. My moms name is carol diane hinnant and my sands name is mark anthony hinnant
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.
