Finding biological parents? help/advice? its much appreciated!?

I want to find my biological parents. I did as I was suppose to and have waited to the age of 18. However I know nothing about them. All I know is the name of the hospital, where I was born. Does it matter if I was born in a different state than where I was adopted? What do I do?





Thank you :]Finding biological parents? help/advice? its much appreciated!?
First, send a snail mail letter to the agency you were adopted through, whether it was a private agency or the State of whatever. Most likely you were adopted through some agency like Catholic Charities, Lutheran Social services or a private one. Whether the agency got involved from the state where you were born or the state where your adoptive parents were, write them a letter similar to this. Call them first -- they won't give you information over the phone, but they will tell you the name of the person you should write to and confirm the address and info they need.





Dear Ms. Jones:





My name is Elizabeth Jane Smith. I was born January 1, 1990 at St. Joseph Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. I was placed for adoption through Child Connect Charity and my adoption by John and Jane Smith was final in Sacramento, California on January 2, 1991.





I am seeking any information about my biological family, particularly whether they have been in contact with your agency, or any other information you have.





Thank you for your assistance in this matter. You can reach me on my cell phone at 808-888-8888, by email at betsy.smith@email.net or at the following address:











Sincerely,





Elizabeth Jane Smith








You can also write to the hospital records department requesting your medical records, and although they might have blacked out your biological mother's name, the records themselves might have other clues, or would at least be interesting.





There might also be a free classified website in the city where you were born and you could place an ad like this:

All the best to you -- it does not always end in an Oprah-like hugging reunion, or even when it does, an ongoing relationship can be much harder than you'd think. Also, be careful with your adoptive mother's feelings and emotion about this. Even if she's acting cool about it (if she knows) chances are she's not.





I would not have considered searching for my bio-family had my adoptive mother been living when I turned 18.Finding biological parents? help/advice? its much appreciated!?
I was adopted in the UK in 1971. I now live in Ireland, and the way I started was to contact the agency I was adopted through. They gave me access to my birth records and from there I got my mothers name and date of birth. I have been able to get a copy of her birth certificate and now I need to try to find out did she ever get married.





Hope that helps.


Good luck.
you could call and ask the hospital for a copy of your birth cirtificate. you may have to give them your social if your name was different or you werent given one then. but this is only a guess.
Call the hospital that you were born in and ask them for your birth certificate.
