Our birth mother’s last name is Kelly and our birth father’s name is Stanley Shipley. I believe my brother’s adopted name is Mark.

1212. Amanda12345678912345 : I have found my mom her name is Donna Hill, I was told my father’s name was Frank and might have been in the service but that’s all I got.
1214. JosieDawn : The birth mother’s first name was Josie, DOB 9-17-55. The maternal grandparents’ first names were James/Frank/Junior and Mildred. The birth mother and birth father were caucasian. The birth mother resided just outside Knoxville, TN, in a small rural community. She give birth in the spring/summer of 1972 at the age of 16. She probably gave birth in the state of Tennessee, but may have traveled outside the state. During that time, and in that area, all of the details were kept as quiet as possible, so even close family members and friends did not have info on the sex of the baby, date of birth, or place of adoption. I do have other info that could verify a match, such as name of father, details surrounding the time that the birth mother was pregnant, other family names.
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.
