1862. Shorty098 : Birth child’s name: Jonathan Alexander Baney. Born to Lorrie Ann Baney (Baldridge) 7/01/1969 & Antonio R. Suttle (Tony) in Memphis‚ TN. Jonathan was given up for adoption to the Department of Children Services. It was a closed adoption as the parents were 17 years old at the time. The birth mother was living in a birth home at the time (Bethany Home). He was born at The Med (Regional One) hospital on March 10th‚ 1987. My son is biracial (African American and Caucasian).
1863. Rachele35222 : I am Darby Quinn Brown birth mother. I gave her up for adoption at birth. I was an active drug addiction and knew that she would deserve better andore then I could provide then. I now am 6 years in recoverung drug addict who wants to give her the option that I am open to anything she wants or needs. I would love to meet her but again I want to do whatever is that is best for her. The adoptive parents cut off pictures‚ emails and all that with my mom 6 more years ago. I am hoping that we can come together sometime and this hopefully will help with that.
1866. Conniehodge : My son was born December 2‚1989 in Chattanooga Tennessee at Humana Eastridge hospital. The agency that handled the adoption was Bethany Christian Services. My case worker was Sherry Johnson.
1867. Vanessa1966 : I’m searching for my brother. Born in Memphis Tennessee approximately late 1959 to January 1960. Possibly at St Joseph’s. Birth mom is Eva Weatherby
1868. SerenaBevan : I was told I had a sister. I don’t know her name or anything else about her. Our birth Father’s name was Lawrence Naranjo. He stuck to Colorado and Kansas mainly as far as I know. That she could have been adopted to be anywhere from 1964 to 1980 because I’m not sure if she was older or younger than myself. I think she was younger but I’m just covering my basics. I have done then DNA through ancestry DNA. Nothing has come up through that yet
1869. Pembertonm1 : She was born at UT Hospital in Knoxville‚TN. Social Services was called for adoption. I named her Christy Scott. Her father was Terry Scott at the time I was going to the University of TN.‚and was married to an abusive man‚ She was born on Oct‚21‚1975.
1871. Vee3773 : Searching a long time for you‚ my son. I gave you the name of Rory Matthew Nelsen. You are 47 this year. Wow!
I gave birth to you at the old Vanderbilt University
Hospital in Nashville.
A couple of weeks later it was determined that the adoption be a closed adoption. I could not find out who adopted you‚ what city‚ what name you were given‚ as well as‚ you couldn’t know my name either. I hate that this happened‚ but it was by judgement.
We only live once and I sure would love to finally find you and talk. I hope that it can happen before I leave this world. I loved you then and I love you still!
1874. Nsgspring : My grandmother Margaret banks Ravarino irizarry Dunlap gave her daughter my aunt up for adoption in 1963. She also gave me up for adoption later that year. So I have an aunt that doesn’t know anything about me. I lived her story as my grandmother pretended to be my mother in my adoption. I think we could really relate to each other both being adopted by the same person.
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.
