220. McMillian : My husbands mother Dianna Wilkinson from Cole Grove OH had a baby girl and a son by the same man. The son is my kids father. She gave up the first child due to her being so young and ashamed to have been with a man she did not know was married til she had her 2nd child‚ Shawn and while she was pregnant with him‚ a man married her and decided to give him his last name. We were told that the girl given up for adoption is an Elizabeth Minor and she was put into a mental institution. We are not 10% sure if this is her.

I have found my daughter! I got on adopted.com on Friday about 8pm. I had 6 matches‚ I sent out 3 messages and my daughter Karen was the first one to reply. By 9pm we were emailing each other. She looks just like me. I can't believe this has happened. Thank you adopted.com for this successful reunion!
