She passed away in April 2020, and I have NOW been told by one of my Aunts that my momma’s mom was Italian and went to a Christian church locally with Bessie Jurosko. Bess was my great Aunt I think, but bc she rasied my grandma Marcella, I called her my Great Grandma. I’ve been told there were already a couple kids in that family which.means I HAVE UNCLES OR AUNTS AND COUSINS OUT THERE!

If anyone could help close this lifelong journey for my grandma who has since passed it would be a dream come true. Thank you ,

552. Helpingdnamatches : I am searching on behalf of an adoptee .Looking for a woman who was adopted and lived in California during her mid 20’s, who then placed a daughter for adoption in January 1979 in California. The child (a daughter) was born in Long Beach. She believes that she was born baby girl Beaumont and that her mother was born in the mid 1950’s. She also believes her father was Navy. Both the adoptee and myself have done DNA testing for this search (we are related as well).

My mother is an adoptee who was born on 8/30/1967 in Charleston, WV. We have been told that her birth parents married and had more children after her adoption. We know her father was in the military, maybe the airforce. I believe her mother was 18 when she had her.
555. Cbram5191 : I am searching for any possible family members of my father who was adopted in Kentucky or West Virginia in 1960. His birth certificate says he was born in Clarksburg West Virginia. But he was raised in Jenkins Kentucky near the Virginia border by his adopted parents. My father passed last year and I didn’t know him unfortunately and I would like to meet my family. My father was a tall man 6’7" I was never able to talk to him about his adoption therefore I have don’t have much info other than the things I inherited photos and such.
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.
