A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Utah Who Chose To Be Featured
1801. Jessimikesell30 : I am helping my mother search for her birth parents. She was born March 5‚ 1962 in Ogden‚ UT. at St. Benedict’s Hospital. As far as we know‚ the adoption was through the LDS church and the records have been sealed.
1802. Annvalerie78 : I'm looking for my niece who at birth was named Kathryn Prater. If I remember correctly possibly Kathryn Katana Prater. I'm pretty sure she was born at St Marks Hospital I think sometime in May of 1998.
I am sorry‚ but my memory is not as great as it used to be. My brother is her biological father‚ his name is William Raymond Prater and her mother is Elizabeth Prater.. I think her middle name was Ann but I'm not positive. I can not remember her maiden name but her last married name was jackson.
Kathryn was removed from her parents in the hospital at birth and was adopted shortly after birth without ever coming home with her biological parents and never met anyone in her biological family
1803. StefaniNazario2626 : Birth name was Giovanni Lazaro. He was adopted and had his name changed to Giovanni Done. Then he was returned to the department of child safety system in Utah and was adopted once more around 2020. He was born in Phoenix‚ Arizona I believe.
1804. Pyiro6 : I was adopted by Howard and Sherry. We exchanged letters with my birth parents for a while‚ but that ended in elementary school. I have a biological brother named Thomas and a Biological sister named Kira. My original name before adoption was Nathan. The adoption was through LDS social services.
1807. Quest1969 : Holy Cross Hospital in Salt Lake City. Parents were students at West High School. Mother had red hair‚ a Junior. Father was a Senior on the football team. Adoption placement through LDS Family Services in Salt Lake City. Baby boy with dark hair and brown eyes.
1808. Wizkid : I recently discovered my mom had given up a baby for adoption before she got married and had me and my siblings. The baby girl was born July 1‚ 1988 in Pocatello Idaho and then was adopted by a family in Utah. All the info she was given was this family had lots of boys and wanted a girl. This was a private adoption recommended by a friend of a friend‚ so my mom had no contact with the family directly and was never even told their names. She was also told they were members of the LDS church at the time. My mom has green eyes and the father had blue eyes‚ so the baby girl would have light eyes for sure. If this sounds like you‚ please reach out to me. My siblings and I would really like to find our older sister!
1809. Terilynnemotta : I have a my heritage dna. But I have not ever been able to find out anything!! I would really love to find any family at all. My birth mother may not be alive still but would love to know if I have any family!!
1814. Waterbabe : Adopted through LDS social services in Salt Lake City Utah at LDS hospital. Birth mothers name was Christine Matley‚ and she thinks the fathers name was Randy Hammond. She was the oldest of 6 kids. 5 girls and one boy.
Birth mother lived in California‚ was shipped to Utah while she was pregnant then family moved to Washington state after the birth. She married a couple years later and moved to Tennessee. My Birth Grandfather is Lauren Matley.
I found a half sister named Michelle Olin. Married
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.
