918. Erniec0502 : I was born in Columbia south Carolina. the adoption was arranged prior to my birth and i was adopted immediately after i was born. I really am ready to find out who my birth parents are. my name is Erin Eileen Conaughton now. i know nothing about my original family but i want to. my adoptive dad said they were "professionals" i don’t have any idea what that means. I was taken directly from Columbia South Carolina to NJ where i lived almost my entire life. I have a son now and so many questions about who i am. I survived 12 years of addiction and have been sober now for 2.5 years but i feel like there is so much i am missing about myself. I lived in Demarest NJ for 20 years. The people that adopted me were Matthew and Eileen Conaughton. I have a half brother and sister Timmy and Tracy. I know i went back to see my adoption lawyer in Columbia when i was 12 i think i remember she was skinny with i think red hair but i remember nothing else except that i was terrified and overwhelmed.

923. Boots13 : Was told by paternal grandmother: Birth parents names: Sarah Phillips Pierce & George Matthew Pierce (Charleston SC area. Born in Walterboro, SC, Colleton County at Walterboro SC Hospital. Delivered by Dr. William "Billy" McDaniel. Sunday 09-10-1961 at 2 pm. Attorney: William Smoak.

924. Brantlee : He was born in Charleston, SC at Florence Crittenton Home and named Stafford Wynn Hammond. Birth Mother is Mary Lynn Hammond, from Spartanburg, SC. Birth was May 26, 1963.
926. LookingJune88 : My mother was a 5’7 Black female she was 19 with a 2-3 year old daughter in 1988. She became pregnant with me and decided to give me up for adoption. She kept my older sister, to my knowledge. My mother signed all paperwork at the hospital and may have told her family that I died during labor. I have the first name Sharon for my birth mother, but this may be wrong. She was born on August 25, 1968 this is accurate. I was born in Beaufort, County on June 13, 1988. After I was born, she requested pictures of me several pictures actually. However, she never traveled to see me or my family. SC records do not allow me to see any other information. I do not want to complicate any lives I just want details for my own closure.
928. BetteDavis : I am looking for the birth mother of William Boyd Christopher. He was born 8-23-1947 was adopted on 8-30-1947 in Columbia SC. On some paperwork that his daughter has it states he was born as Hardeman baby. His daughter and I are either 1st cousins or I am her aunt. We would like to solve this.
929. Mikenmimi69 : My name is Crystal Jolly . I am looking for my daughter Angela Denise Jackson but I heard they changed her name to Angela Grace Coates. Angela was born at Spartanburg regional. The only person listed on her birth certificate is my mom Rachel Annette Jackson(1962- 2011). Some other names that might come up is Michael Christopher Waters. Thats her biological father. When I found out I was pregnant with Angela we already had a 3 year old and a newborn. We were already financially struggling. So I cried to my mom and told her that i loved my baby and I didnt wanna have to put her up for adoption. So we agreed that my mom would raise her. Well I had her and 2 1/2 years passed and then my mom passed a way . my aunt Martha took angela for a day for me . then she came back the next day to my house and said "I have a couple who is interested in adopting Angela. " I wasn’t in my right mind cause my mom just died the day before and I said i would think about it. Well I got to meet Lori a few days later and she promised me I could see her anytime I wanted to and that Angela would have a great life and never want for anything. I just wanted what was best for her. So I said yes. A week later I think we were at the attorneys office signing papers cause i honestly thought I would be able to see her again. Well after we signed months went by and no word. I messaged her on Facebook and asked a out her and she blocked me. Then out of the blue 5 years ago she messaged me and said that she wanted to help my son and buy new school clothes. So I met her at McDonald’s on heron circle. I have the picture to prove it and I do still have Angela’s original birth certificate. I havent seen her since. I have tried emailing her cause that was our agreement. Im not looking to take Angela back cause she has been with them since a toddler and I couldn’t do that to her. All I want is a chance to get to know my daughter and her brother and sister
930. Natasha0519 : I want to know who are my parents I know I’ve been adopted I know that they live in Charleston South Carolina I really don’t know what much to say I just want to know some answers
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.
