I know what you mean about it being like starting a book on chapter 2, I can totally identify. Like being late for a film at the movie theater, you enjoy the film, it's nice and all - but it would have been better if you'd seen the beginning of it!
Make sure you're on as many registries as possible and get your Non-identifying information from the State/agency, although I'm sure you have already done that

http://isrr.net/
I would be happy to do some name lookups for you, always happy to help a fellow searching adoptee. We all deserve to know the truth of our origins.

Hi Kevin,
I did an Ancestry.com search. Torbush isn't that common of a name. I came up with some people who would be the right age and location to be possible relatives to Andrea. You can email me privately from my profile page and I'll send you what I found.
eta:
Oh ya, I meant to also say that you will want to go by what Mary G is suggesting, too. She's got a lot of good advice and information in her post. |

Ok now for a serious answer. Register with ISRR (Internationl Soundex Reunion Registry) There are many on line registries as well. As much as I hate to say it adoption.com (evil website in my eyes) the registry there helped my daughter find me. Also you need to read and prepare for reunion. If you have your natural mothers name as it appears you do, you can also do a Soundex search. It does cost some money but not a huge amount. Another suggestion if you have any thing that is personal that only you and your mother would know hold back that information. It will save you from scammers (and there are some out there! Sad but true) Read The Primal Wound by Nancy Verrier and the Adoption Healing books by Joe Soll they do help alot. If you have any questions my email is open to anyone on the board.
Also check in the state you were born and see if there is a mutual consent registry, if there is one register. It is usually free and can be very helpful. There are also people out there called "search angels" who help adoptees and mothers find each other. Good luck! |

Use the internet, use it, if one trail ends, go down another one, keep at it. It won't happen overnight, but it isn't impossible. In Kentucky when an adopted child turns either 18 or 21 they can go to Frankfurt and not necessarily look at their records but they can find out if anyone had been looking for them and if there is a letter in their saying the biological family is looking for them and that gives them the opportunity to make the choice to look or not to look. Some feel disloyal to their adopted parents, which they shouldn't. If the adopted parents love them like they should they should want them to find peace in their lives. |

I liked Mary G's advice.
I am adopted too. I am 40 years old. I was told that my natural mother had me when she was 13 years old.
I have never wanted to meet her because I felt that she may not have told the people in her life today about me. I would not want to disrupt her family life. So be prepared that your biological parents may not be ready to meet you.
You may also find help through the family court system to get your adoption file unsealed. The procedure may vary from county to county. This may be costly too.
I hope it works out the way you want! |

There is some Geneolgy websites/forums, where people post trying to get info on past family members ect. I have seen people on there looking for there birth parents or children. You should try it, just google geneolgy and Torbush, and you should be able to find a forum for those of that last name, Good Luck!! |

i dont know how i can help..im sry but why don't u ask ur parents that adopted u..??... |
|
I love someone lunatically
 |
sad...i don't know how to help you. but only your adopted parents can help you in this... i mean start collecting the data from home only... search your adoption documents, ask your adopted parents, search for an agency, where you belong from... etc stuff... i think these types of things can only navigate you. what do you think? |

I did a people search. these were the cities that came up in the free search. sorry I can't be of more assistance. I don't have the funding to do a full search. the top city is usually where they are currently.

try salvation army they have records
aslo mormon church in salt lake city Utah keeps records
there are professional agencies who will try to find your parents...you could try Oprah show or some show thats advertising to find someones parents....
www.intellis search.com--- can find someone for a fee of about $10 but you may need dob + social...try it anyway..
failing that you could try a private investigator but they do not come cheap (I hope this helps)
God Bless |

Kevin, I don't know about your biological mother, but I believe that I grew up being close with your adoptive family. If you have an adoptive mother named Mary and a brother named Timmy, my mother was best friends with your mother and I was best friends with Timmy. I found my biological mother when I was 16 and would love to speak with you and maybe be of assistance and if you are who I think you are, I would love to reconnect with you guys as well. Feel free to email me. |
