A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within West Virginia Who Chose To Be Featured
766. Glitteredskittled : My mother was adopted. We met her birth mother when I was 6 years old. She lived in Winston Salem‚ NC (USA)‚ at that time. My grandparents lived in Huntington WV when they adopted my mom. I think my birth grandmothers name was Becky Hutchison. My mom passed away in 2016 however and both of my adoptive grandparents have passed. I can’t find any potential records for Becky on Ancestry so I came here. Thanks for reading!
767. Nanania : My husband is searching for his son who he did not know about until 48 years after his birth. He was told he was born in March of 1973. He doesn’t know the location of his birth. The birth mother had lived in Iowa and Missouri prior to the pregnancy and the father from Iowa.
768. Rburgess80 : It’s simple this should be easy to find my birth parents if they want to be. My twin sister and I were adopted into a very wonderful loving family at our birth. By the request of my birth parents. We are twin girls now 43. Our birth parents gave explicit desires that we were to be taken care of given good educations and brought up in church. They wanted us to be brought up well. I believe they (birth parents) got pregnant with us in grad school had their careers on the line and could not handle this very big task. They succeeded we were brought up well and I would like to know who they are. 2 twin girls white born October 3‚ 1980. A mom can’t forget that. It was a ClOSED adoption plz help me get info Rachel Burgess
769. BandersonDFW : Searching for my biological parents - one or both. Not sure why I’ve waited so long‚ but here I am. Most of all‚ I’m just curious.
I was born (early by several weeks) on April 6‚ 1987 in Huntington‚ WV. I was adopted right at birth... i.e. I left the hospital with my adoptive parents.
Only thing I was told was that my biological mother was quite young. I can only imagine how brave it was to carry‚ what I can only imagine was an unexpected pregnancy to term in 1987 West Virginia. The fact that adoption was considered and ultimately decided on quite literally saved my life. And for that‚ all I can say is‚ "Thank you."

Aseckman1 : I was adopted in 1971 I found my biological mother and I asked who my father is she never gave me his name all I was told is I have a sibling in new Martinsville wv .I petition for my adoption paper work when I received it all names were blacked out but I seen a Florence griffin home were my biological mom had me Iall I know is my father was putting up electricity poles in New Martinsville and surrounding areas in 1970 and possibly is from Martinsburg I like to find my sibling I thought I heard my bio mom say it was a female ‚Brooks is my biological mother last name .i think I not sure if my biological dad last name is Rankin I pray I can find her/him

780. Debalyn1958 : My mother recently shared that she had a son placed for adoption at birth. She has developed memory issues and is not sure of the exact date. Dec‚ Jan‚ Feb in 1964 - 66‚ definitely winter she remembers. The father is Albert Ward and he or a family member may have adopted the son. He was born in St. Mary’s hospital‚ Huntington‚ WV and the hospital Sisters may have arranged the adoption. She name him David Keith Ward‚ but that may not have been put on his birth certificate since it was an immediate adoption. She and the father both lived in Barboursville‚ WV at that time. The father had a brother named Joe.
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.
