287. Trisharn : I was recently contacted by a half-sister (ancestry). I am trying to gather information as to how and why she was adopted at about 3 years old. We share the same father and my bio sisters and I never knew of her. Reportedly she and her sister (not DNA matched with us) were adopted 12/04/1956 in South Dakota, possibly from a Catholic agency in Fort Pierre. She is not sure of her exact birthday and celebrates her adoption day as her birthday as does her sister. I would like to know if she was born in Texas, where we have always lived, and who her mother is/was.
288. Katlew1211 : I am looking for my biological father. I’ve been told that he played college basketball. I’ve been in touch with my biological mother, R.H., but she claims she doesn’t know who my biological father is. I don’t believe her.
289. Zorkrobert : About 2 months ago my ex called me to tell me that i had a daughter that she adopted out and that was never my choice i never would have terminated rights for my child. the reason we broke up was because she told me she terminated the pregnancy and that was hard for me to handle. now almost a year later she called me with this information i just want to find my daughter so she knows i loved her and this was never my choice.

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.
