Trying to find a child that was supposedly put up for adoption by my mother. How do I begin a search?
|
This child was put up for adoption and I have very little information other than that he/she was born in the early 60's, and my mothers maiden name and the birth state being New York. I really want to do the research myself but am totally unsure of where to start-- any suggestions?

Adoption Database http://adoptiondatabase.org/ has a registry, a search and support group and a fee-based search service. It is a "no find, no fee" service, so if they cannot find your relative, you pay nothing. They recently found 2 men who had been adopted for their biological cousin who was searching for them. She paid a total of $310.00. |

Get the non-identifying information from the agency or lawyer that did the adoption. You actually have a lot more information that most of us adoptees, you have the mothers name. If nothing else, there are people trying to get licensed to do searches of this sort. A lot of times, they charge just their expenses they incur for the search in exchange for a letter of recommendation. There are databases that searchers have that have tons of this sort of information. |
