2116. Stephyrae82 : I am desperately trying to help find my boyfriends birth parents and surviving siblings or any relative rather.. He is suffering so much with depression and feeling lost and not like he does not belong anywhere that I truly believe this will help him move forward to a happier life. Please HELP there is also suspicious things about the story so just wondering if he was actually adopted or kidnapped??
2117. LizRitzert : My bio mom was Tiffany Dawn Shclauch at the time of my birth. I was born in Jennie Stuart Hospital in Hopkinsville‚ Kentucky. I have met my bio mom who has since passed but I have not met my bio dad. She said his name was Charles Leonidas Morris and that he was from Indiana. I was adopted by the Ritzert family and went home with them from the hospital. They lived next door to my bio family in Clarksville Tennessee in 1990. We moved to Hopkinsville‚ Kentucky in 1994.
2118. BobbieRuth : It would have been in or around Clarksville TN. In 60s or early 70s. The Mother's name was Shirley Huff. She moved to Louisiana. And had a daughter. And she passed away in the early 80s. She was in her late 30s. I was one of the children that got adopted. There was a Brother named Keith Huff. He was adopted by the mothers Sister. He passed away a few years ago at 54 yrs old. Heart attack. I'm just looking for any blood kin...🍀
2119. Adraves93 : Linda Patterson is the name of the potential mother of my half brother. She would have been 13-16 years old at the time of birth. She went to Cedaredge High School in Cedaredge‚ Colorado.
2121. Imabird1820 : My name is Sarah Katharyn Barnard‚ I’m hoping to maybe see some pictures of my baby that I gave up as a newborn.. I don’t want to make his life messy‚ I just want to know that he’s okay. I gave him up as a newborn and never saw him again after they took him to the Nicu after the ambulance ride. I didnt know i was pregnant and had him at my home. I was afraid if I went to see him at the hospital‚ I wouldn’t be able to do the right thing and surrender my rights.. I was a drug addict.. I wanted the best for him‚ and i knew i’m not anywhere close to the best. He was born in East Ridge‚ TN. As of July 2025‚ he’s almost 3. He was adopted around his first birthday‚ so probably July 2023. Again‚ I don’t want to intrude on his life or anything like that.. I’m clean now but I have accepted that I’m just his birth mother and not actually his parent. just think about him all the time and would really like to know how he is. His birth name was William Stokes Barnard.
If you don’t want to contact me but want to know about where he came from.. I do have an account on ancestory.com..
