All Other Information: My great-grandparents Charles and Fannie May Porter lived in Kokomo, Indiana in 1909. There is a death notice of a newborn son in the newspaper with a date of birth and death of 6-27-1909 listed with my Great-Grandparents name. However, they brought home a baby girl. There was a widowed woman named Porter who had a baby girl on the same day in the same hospital. On my great-grandmothers death bed, she told my mother that my grandmother was adopted. We have not been able to find a birth certificate, only a baptism record. We have been led to believe that my great-grandparents brought home the newborn of the Widowed Porter woman. However, we do not have any other information and there is no documentation to be found. (Update) Margaret Anne Porter was around 5'3" tall, with brown eyes and brown hair. DNA testing has been done with 23andme. It shows German descent. My maternal grandfather immigrated from Great Britan in 1914.  My paternal grandparents descend from Amish and originally from Switzerland.

Searching For: Birth Parents, Birth Family, Medical History.
All Other Information: My father (Donald Perry) will be turning 90 next year and he has always wanted to just know who his birth parents were. My half-brother and I are hoping to give him this information before he dies. My brother and I would also like to have any potential family medical information because of health issues that he and I have both had. We understand that there was a fire in the Veil Maternity Hospital and all records were lost. Donald's birth record number is 77022, Commonwealth of PA. Donald Perry lived in Cornwall, NY most of his life and still lives there. He may have originally been taken to NJ after adoption but the family moved to Cornwall, NY in a relatively short time. I can confirm that information and will post it. Of less know information, my father believes that the birth mother and birth father were students at either the University of PA or Penn State. It was believed that one or both of the birth parents were of Scottish decent. A name starting with "Mc or Mac" ? My father also believes that it was a football player and cheerleader. We did determine that the Univ of PA has no records of cheerleaders before the 50's. There is a McGraw, a Mcginley and a McMullin on the 1924 team. That is as far as we have gotten on our research.

All Other Information: The adoptee is 5'3" tall, with blue eyes, very fair skin and fine, light reddish / auburn hair. She had a slight birthmark near the hairline on one side of her face that faded as she got older. She was able to obtain her original birth certificate (File No. 101789-35 filed on 9-4-1935) and also has her amended birth certificate given to her by her adoptive parents (File No. 101789, Bureau of Vital Statistics, Harrisburg, PA No. 260 amended on 6-23-1936). The birth parents were not married. The original birth certificate says that the birth mother was born in Riegelsville, PA, and that the birth father was born in Trenton NJ. However, the Veil Hospital is known to have falsified some of the information on birth certificates. The birth mother was said to be 20 years old at the time of birth (born in ?-?-1915) and the birth father was 25 years old (born in ?-?-1910). We have not been able to find anyone in census data from those places with the stated names and ages. The adoptee intends to request non identifying information on her birth parents, but we have learned that there is often little available for babies adopted from the Veil. Her adoptive father destroyed all of the adoption papers in his possession in the 1960’s. The adoptee has registered on adoptiondatabase.org. She has not yet done any DNA testing. The adoptive parents lived in Springfield, NJ at the time of the adoption, and moved to Liberty Corner, NJ soon afterwards. The adoptee was told that she was of Scotch-English heritage and that a match was made to the adoptive family based on shared musical abilities. The adoptee played the viola, sang in the choir, and played the organ at her church when she was in high school. She has a wide range of interests and loves swimming, drawing and reading. She enjoys creative writing and has a talent for fashion design and tailoring. Her adoptive grandmother once told her that her birth mother got married several years after the adoption, and that she had contacted the family to try to take her birth daughter back, but the adoptive parents refused. We don’t know if this is really true.

Searching For: Adoptee, Birth Sibling

All Other Information: My mother was told she had a girl, born with no rectal opening. She was told not to change the diaper, as it would be too upsetting to her, so she never saw the babies genital area. For the next 2 weeks, my mother was told the nurses would care for the baby, and my mother never saw her baby again. At the end of 2 weeks, the nurses told my mother her baby had died, and that they would take care of everything for her. My mother never saw her baby after she was supposed to have died. For the rest of her life my mother believed her baby had died. In recent years the news has told of cases similar to this, where the baby didn't die, but was adopted out. Since my mother never saw proof  that her baby was a girl, or that her baby really did die, I believe it is probable that her baby, which could be either gender, was illegally adopted. The birth father had moved out of the state before the baby was born.

Searching For: Any Birth Relative of my mother who was adopted, Medical History.

All Other Information: This search is to find any birth relative of my mother. My mother is now deceased. I have found no records.
I believe hers to have been a black market adoption as her adoptive parents were a wealthy childless couple in their 50's during the 1930's in Oklahoma. (Update) Mary was 5'5" tall, with reddish brown hair.  Photos of her from birth to adulthood are reflective of someone with distinct Irish, Scottish ancestry. Believing that she was a black market adoption (her adoptive parents were in their 50’s, childless and wealthy), my hunch is that she was a trafficked newborn bought and sent/picked up from Nova Scotia or Newfoundland

Searching For: Adoptee, Birth Sibling

All Other Information: If this baby exists, she was stolen from her birth family and sold through a baby brokerage; and this would be a twin birth. Dr. John A Houck was the delivering doctor, assisted by his nurse Louella Muller. Both were later charged with baby brokering; and were killed together in a car wreck. Only in recent years have things come to light to suggest a twin may have been taken from the family. It is possible the baby was taken to BC Canada; as the doctor and nurse often went there clandestinely.

All Other Information: My mother has a birth certificate from Union City Hospital in NJ that has her adopted parents name on it by Dr. Welcher. We believe she was born in Brooklyn by Dr. Max Herskowitz and then he set up the adoption with the adoptive parents. From others whose BC were also falsified with the same doctor and adopted in Brooklyn by Dr. Herskowitz, they had found that they were born at Brooklyn Jewish Hospital and the Union City, NJ was just a cover to hide the identity of the birth mother. (Update) We have no info on the birth parents, but do assume they were white because my mom is 5’10” tall, with bright blue eyes and medium blond hair. She was a beautiful baby too and modeled in the 1960’s.

All Other Information: Adoptive adoptee: Judith Harriet Ellenbogen Born: 6-?-1946 or 7-?-1946 or 8-?-1946 State Born: Bronx, Manhattan, NY or Union City, NJ. Doctors Involved: Dr. Max Herskowitz & Dr. Howard Welcher Private adoption done in New York City / Bronx by adoptive parents even though they resided in Passaic, NJ. to hide birth mothers name. I am unable to obtain a NY birth certificate because I do not have a correct date of birth. I do have a phony birth certificate issued from Dr. Welcher from his private hospital (actually a clinic for abortion) stating I was born on 7-25-1946. There was no adoption done in NJ. I have no sealed records in Jersey or in any County Surrogates office there. Lawyers name: Larry ?  Cohort of Dr. Herskowitz in Manhattan. Adoptive mother said she did not remember his last name. But she was under the impression that Larry was Herskowitz's son. Larry must of been anywhere from 22-27 years old in ?-?-1946. Herskowitz did not have any children. This lawyer was produced by Herskowitz. Location of Doctors: Herskowitz - 318 East 3rd Street, Manhattan\ Welcher - Hudson Blvd, North Bergen. Birth mother is related to Yetta Scherzer Rubenstein Becker from the Bronx. Birth mother may be either Yetta's step sister Sally Rubenstein born in ?-?-1927 or Yetta's little sister Betsy / Bessie Scherzer born ?-?-1923. Yetta and husband Manny lived on Hillman Street in the Co-op Apartments in the Bronx. Yetta had two very close friends, Sylvia Holpzafel and Pauline Yacker who also lived in these apartments. Sylvia Holpzafel was the go-between's (Rea Schwartz) niece who helped arranged my adoption and introduced my adoptive mother to Herskowitz. I have two pins (I guess for identification purposes) that were given to me by possible birth grandfather during a 5 minute visitation when I was in 3rd or 4th grade. They are 24K gold pins in the shape of Queen Ants (they have wings) with a pearl in their middle section. At the time, I had no idea who this man was, and why he was giving me an inappropriate gift for an eight year old. I also had no idea I was adopted until I was 16 years old. I have been searching since 1981. (Update) Judith is 5’5” tall, with greenish brown eyes and brown hair. Birth mother had reddish blond hair, birth father had jet black hair. There are no adoption records. I am unable to obtain a NY birth certificate because I do not have a correct date of birth. I do have a phony birth certificate issued from Dr. Welcher from his private hospital (actually a clinic for abortion) stating I was born on 7-25-1946. There was no adoption done in NJ.  I do not believe that I was born on the 25th of July…..I think the numerical date is incorrect but the month is correct. Recently did DNA – my genetic composition is 50% Irish and 30% Italian – the rest is European, Greek, British….Dr Herskowitz told my adoptive mother that I came from a Jewish mother….I think that is a lie too since my adoptive father was associated with Synagogues in Passaic, NJ…..and she had asked him to make sure that the birth mother was Jewish…he lied to her.

All Other Information: Attorney or doctor involved ?. Susan Marion Purvis celebrates 10-27-1946 as her birthdate.  When she was a baby she can remember people saying she looked  much older than her reported age. She believes she was in some sort of foster care for close to a year either in the USA or Canada. Birth mother was 20 years old at time of birth. 5'4" tall, Birth father was 20 years old at time of birth. 6'4" tall, Susan Marion Purvis is 5'7" tall, with blue eyes and dark blonde hair. Susan's birth was registered in Niagara Falls Ontario on 11-22-1946. Susan was never told she was adopted. She was always presented as the daughter of Arthur and Ingrid Purvis although everyone in the family knew she was not. Arthur and Ingrid never lived together after Susan arrived. Believe she was procured by Ingrid from a black baby market in the Carolinas. Her birth mother Crystal (Cindy) Hartwell may have been coached and aided by the birth father's mother, Katherine Fitzgerald. The birth father was stationed in the Pacific at the time of birth.

All Other Information: I am searching for my birth mother and birth father and any birth family information I can find. I was a Georgia Tann, Black market baby. My mother was supposedly 21 when I was born and lived in Tennessee all her life. I arrived via plane to Los Angeles at age three months in 6-?-1947. I was legally adopted in 1948 in Memphis, Tennessee. Why the delay I do not know. My birth mother supposedly worked as a waitress at Donleys? on 1371 Union Street in Memphis. She lived at 1604 East Moreland Street address in Memphis and her mailing address per the Adoption Registration notice was 901 Chelsea Memphis, TN. in 1947.

All Other Information: (Update) Worked with W.A.R.M for 3 years before they gave up. Some of these answers came from them. W.A.R.M. took pic I supplied to geneology specialist. They said partially Alaskan Indian or American Indian. Birth mother approx 23 years old. Everything else unknown. I am 5'4" tall, I have grey eyes and black hair. My adoptive sister (not my birth sister) did a 20 year search through W.A.R.M and found her birth mother. She was a black market baby bought out of the Bess Gilroy Unwed Mothers Home in Seattle. They told her mother she had died at birth and sold her after her mother left. My brother-in-law wrote a short story which was posted on the web called Stolen At Birth By Peter Dixon which could give you more facts than I possibly could here. W.A.R.M said I came out of the same unwed mothers home.

Searching For: Adoptee, Birth Sibling 
All Other Information: Family stories and a copy of the hospital birth certificate indicate I must have had a twin brother.  My father wanted a girl, bu the attending doctor told my father I was a boy.  The nurse, however, told my mother they had a girl.  The hospital birth certificate was filled in originally with all information except the name, including "male".  The word "male" was erased and rewritten "female" at the same time the name was added. Twins run in my family.  This was the first time there had been no twins.  However, I believe I was a twin and that the doctor intended to black-market me, but with the nurses' slip-up, he had to take the boy instead. The attending physician was Carl Greenstein.  The Superintendent's signature appears to be Sr St.Louis, R.N. which I believe was Sister St Louis.  If any male was a black-market baby from Champaign County, Illinois around 1948 I'd like him to contact me. (Update) The birth family eyes are typically hazel or very blue with a dark ring around the other part of the colored area.  Men are 6'3" to 6'4" tall, very thin with large hands and long legs on the father's side. Men are 5'9" tall, a little stocky with a more rounded face and tend to have edima in their legs as they get older on the mother's side. The father, 6'4" tall, passed away at age 63 years old of a second heart attack. The mother, 5'8" tall, passed away at age 77 years old and had "Dementia". As for hair color, by now the hair should be grey with perhaps some medium brown.  Growing up it would begin blonde and turn "dishwater blonde" or light ash brown after puberty.

All Other Information: So far, I have no indication that a legal adoption took place. Hospital records state that I "left" the hospital on 12-22-1950. My adoptive mother said she brought me home on 12-24-1950. An elderly social worker said that gray market adoptions frequently took place in Baltimore until 1970. Over twenty years ago, I contacted the doctor that took over the practice from the doctor who delivered. His receptionist told me that the doctor of delivery took care of the women who did not keep their babies. I was asked to call back, but when I did, the doctor refused to talk to me. In the background I heard him say he didn't want to talk to me because that baby died. I stopped searching for years. (Update) I have brown curly hair and hazel eyes. My birth certificate says white, but all of the ancestry DNA tests says white (European) with a trace of Native American. My birth father might have been a "blonde" Puerto Rican. My birth mother might have been Barbara Jean Goodwin (maiden name) and 17 at the time of my birth, but I'm not sure about my birth parents. Barbara Jean had brown hair and blue eyes. She had two children from 2 different marriages: Robert E. Davies and Melanie Millhauser Bennet.

All Other Information: I was born in Dr. Lydia Shapiro Home / Office. My birth certificate says 1-16-1953 but for some reason my adopted mother wrote it as 1-7-1953, so I just wanted to put that out there just in case. I am a Black / Gray market baby. $500.00 paid to Dr. Lydia Shapiro. She falsified everything & is deceased. I had my records opened with the CI program & have what was there. But it is not much & unsure of what if anything could be truth. So much falsified info I cannot validate anything. Only thing I do know is that this Dr. delivered children in her home & not in a hospital. Sold them & made sure nothing could be traced back to birth mother. I have letters written to my adoptive parents about selling others if they knew of any other people looking for a child. Some letters were not so nice at times. Birth mother (Agnes Jeffers),was supposedly an accomplished pianist (my adopted mother said she remembers Dr. Shapiro making this statement). She was 26 years old at the time of my birth. She was from Missouri. Do not know why she was in the Fort Wayne, In. area, just that I was born there. Birth father (Stanley Smith)

Searching For: Information about where I came from as well as living birth relatives, Birth Father, Medical History.
All Other Information: Does anyone know about a fake adoption scheme perpetrated in Brooklyn in the 1950's!. I was adopted by a Jewish family in Brooklyn, NY, on 5-21-1954. I was purchased for $2000 from an attorney my adoptive father found. I was issued an official birth certificate from NY State under my adoptive parents' names. I was brought "home" on the day I was born. My adoptive mother knew nothing about the adoption until my adoptive father walked in the door with me. Thirty years later, my adoptive father showed me my "original" birth certificate that had the name "Hershkowitz." The story I was told at the time was that both my birth parents were Jewish and that my birth father was an attorney. My adoptive father also told me that he had met my birth mother before I was born and that she was "very young and very pretty." A few years later, I went to the records at the main NY library, and cross referenced and found the Herskowith birth registered. The problem is that I have had DNA testing done by the 3 major companies. All of them returned that I either have no Jewish blood at all or 1%. I have heard about two brothers, one a doctor and the other a lawyer, who were in "cahoots" selling babies in New York and New Jersey. Am I possibly a victim of their scam ? Does anyone know of other attorneys who may have participated in black market babies at the time ?. Recently, we identified a very close match for the name Sanford. A genealogist who has helped me confirmed the match and tracked down birth grandfather and possibly my birth father, one of his sons. The genealogist says that my birth mother was at least 50% Italian and possibly 100% Italian. I would love to track down my birth mother, though it is doubtful she is still alive. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
(Update) I am 5'10" tall, with hazel eyes and dark brown hair. I have been tested by FTDNA (37marker), 23 and Me, and Ancestry.

All Other Information: My brother was taken at 3 days old and we believe that he was adopted out without my mothers consent. We believe that all information on his records has been falsified to cover-up his birth. He could possibly have ‘official’ looking records showing that he was not actually adopted but a biological son of the family who raised him. My parents were married at the time of my brothers birth and had just moved back to MN from PA where my father had been in the Air Force. (Update) My mom was told that he choked and died when she was ready to leave. We have many falsified documents from the hospital, he was never buried in the family plot, etc. We firmly believed he was taken from my mom and sold on the black market!.

Searching For: I am searching for my birth mother, my birth father and anybody who is related to me. Hopefully I have birth sisters and birth brothers who would like to meet me someday.All Other Information: My adoption became final on 12-2-1957 at the Queens County Courthouse in Jamaica, New York which is located on Sutphin Blvd off of Hillside Ave. I found out about this when I was 19 years. My adopted father told me that my birth mother gave him information how to contact her when I turned 18. My adopted mother destroyed all of the information while my adopted father was at work. I have been searching on my own for a long time and still can't find out anything.  The last time that I saw my birth mother was on 12-2-1957 at the courthouse. She appeared to be about 14 to 17 years old. She wore a brown jacket, a white blouse, black skirt. She's a small woman very pretty but she had the most beautiful long black wavy hair I've ever seen in my life. To this day I've never seen anyone with hair like that. She was with a social worker I think and a court guard all she wanted was to hug me and say goodbye and there was a terrible fight between my adopted parents and her. All I wanted was to go to the lady with the pretty hair and touch her hair. The end result was they held her back and carried me off back down the stairs crying. To this day that scenario has never left me. Also my adopted father had a son from a previous marriage and he showed me pictures of him in his marine uniform and civilian clothes. Funny thing was that I look just like him. His name is Anthony Gurrera and the last I heard is that he was living in Brooklyn N.Y. His mother's name is Mary (Maria). I met her when I was about 11 years old at my aunt's house and she said that I was just like she pictured me. My adopted father came over from Palermo Sicily on the ship called the Alice in 1909. My adopted mother was born in Manhattan at 545 115th Street Harlem on 12-6-1917. I am small framed like my birth mother and 5'4" tall, 115 lbs. Alvin B Greenberg was disbarred from the New York State Bar Association in 10-?-1987 for falsifying thousands of adoption records during his career but was allowed to remain in the firm as a consultant to other attorneys to continue doing this to a lot of innocent children. He had sent a letter to my adoptive parents for disbursements owed which I have but the amount was not listed. I'm not sure if someone told me that Greenberg was black market or if I found out through the New York Library on 42nd Street.

Searching For: Adoptee, Birth Sibling
All Other Information: I am searching for a birth sibling born on 2-2-1957. My parents were Italian immigrants. Mom gave birth on that date but they told my dad that the baby boy died. When I obtained the medical records of my mom, St Justin Hospital in Montreal, the file said that most of the file had been destroyed and the baby was not fully formed and yet was over 8 month pregnant. They told them it was a boy but the file says it was a Girl. Parents have passed away but it's been weighing on my mind. Maybe the baby was sold in the black market as my parents did not speak French or English. If you are out there, I am registered at 23@me.
