My birth mother is said to be deceased and father unknown.
I have 3 sisters‚ one of them being disabled and 2 brothers. I have a photo with all of them when we were at putt-putt in Memphis and that was the last day I saw my siblings.
I have no names or anything. I just really wanna know my siblings.
1792. ABfurnsculpt : I’m trying to find my mother’s sister. She was born in 1968 in Indianapolis‚ Indiana. I do not know state the adoption occurred. I do know that the birth mother turned 26 in 1968. The birth father was around 40. All this information has only been revealed by the birth mother in the past year. I have DNA on Adopted‚ Ancestry‚ 23andMe‚ MyHeritage‚ FamilytreeDNA‚ and GEDmatch. We’d really need that to match.

1798. Tiger11Stripes : I was adopted at birth in Memphis‚ TN. I was told that my birth parents were college students in Arkansas. I am white‚ tall‚ with blue/green/gray eyes‚ and small facial features (possibly nordic???).
1799. Tjpowell : I was born August 5 1968 in Memphis‚ Tennessee. My adoptive parents brought me home from the hospital when I was 3-days-old. I was told later on that my birth parents were college students in Ohio. My birth mother moved to Memphis and lived with a family member to give birth to me. It was a privately arranged adoption.
My aunt told me that she was the only one to meet my birth mother at the hospital.
Both of my adoptive parents have died and my brother from my birth parents also died this year. I am interested in finding my birth parents and/or any biological siblings
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.
