A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Tennessee Who Chose To Be Featured
751. RebeccaJoanne : Jessica is my sister’s name and Caroline is my mother’s name my father was Jerry Smith and married my mother on November 23 1981 I just want to know who you are and maybe we can get together and try to build a new relationship with each other
752. LMC1988 : I am looking for my father’s biological mother and father. He was a male born 09/04/1957 in Memphis, TN possibly at Gaston Hospital (Regional One Health now) by a Dr. M.R. Baird. Adoption was very soon if not at birth in Memphis, TN. I am looking for his birth mother and birth father.
The mother was younger and had a family member/friend that worked at Hunter Fan with my grandmother ask if my grandmother wanted to adopt the birth mother’s son. The biological mother had another child- a blonde haired daughter- a few years later and asked if my grandparents wanted to adopt her too, but they declined. There have been whispers that my grandfather fathered my dad with the young woman, but it has never been proven and my grandfather won’t talk about it. I do know that my grandmother and grandfather broke up immediately before my father was born, but got back together after he was born. (Which further supports this theory). My grandmother passed away in 1994 and my dad passed away in 1990, so I am unsure of where else to turn. The state of Tennessee won’t release any records because my father is deceased and can’t consent to releasing records. I have the adopted birth certificate, but don’t know where else to continue searching.
755. JAE1967 : Hello- I was born October 9‚ 1967 in Knoxville‚ TN. Not sure of the hospital as it lists “rural” on my birth certificate. I was adopted at around 4months old so also unsure if I was surrendered at birth or sometime there after. I am mainly hoping to obtain medical history but also open to more. I have had a great life with tons of love and opportunities so I’m not searching for a “missing piece” and I have never felt “unwanted” or anything negative. I would actually like to let someone know I’m really grateful I was given up because it gave me an amazing life in return! Julieanne
