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.

Searching For: My Mother's Birth Parents, Any Birth Siblings, Medical History.
All Other Information: I am searching for any information on my mother's Birth parents or any of their offspring. My mother has passed and I'm pretty sure that her birth parents would have passed as well but I would like to find out anything that I can about them. I would love to find out if they went on to marry and have families. My mother lived a very full and happy life and was the most wonderful mother. She had 4 children and married a man who was in the AF and spent her life traveling the globe on AF assignments. She got breast cancer at 67 and went into remission for 16 years and then it came back and was in her liver and bones. I often wonder if her breast cancer was something that was genetic. (Updte) Birth mother was 20 years old at the time of birth. Nancy Lee Hartigan was 5'4" tall, with blue eyes and brown hair. I have no other info on her birth parents or birth family at this time. (Update) I believe birth father was born in Boston and died in Springfield, MA in ?-?-1974.

Searching For: Birth Parents of My Father, Medical History.
All Other Information: My father, Richard K. Swicker, was born 10-5-1930, and died in 1-?-2010. He was raised, and lived almost all of his life, in New Jersey. My father was adopted six days after he was born. (It became legal, per court decree, on 11-9-1931.) His biological mother had the surname of “Spaulding.” I don’t yet know her first name. She was a young Roman Catholic girl, age 23 years old, unmarried, and worked as a school teacher. Per documents I have, she stood 5’5” tall, and weighed 130 lbs., with brown eyes and brown hair. She had two brothers. At the time of birth, one was an attorney and the younger brother was in law school. Her father was in the newspaper business. She gave birth to my father at the “Veil Hospital for Unwed Mothers” located in West Chester, Pennsylvania. She named my father James Spaulding. Her one major requirement for the adoption was that the couple be Roman Catholic. My grandparents, Lester and Eileen Swicker, adopted my father and named him Richard Kerwin Swicker, and raised him in New Jersey. My father’s biological father had the surname of “Thomas.” He was 32 years old at the time, had blue eyes and reddish brown hair. Couldn’t tell his height, but documents show he weighed 185 lbs. His occupation was listed as “Counselor at Law.” As of this point, this is all I have.

Searching For: Birth Mother, Birth Father, Birth (Half-)Siblings, Any Other Birth-Relatives, Medical History.
All Other Information: A friend of the adoptive parents, Dr. Patrick Hennessey (ob/gyn) of Garden City, New York, arranged the adoption. Adoptee grew up in Garden City (Long Island), New York. (Update) Myrle is 5'6" tall, she had and blue / gray eyes and straight brown hair. Blonde at birth, turned brown by 1 year old. Birth mother was 16 years old at the time of her birth. No birth father info was listed. (Update) Dr. Patrick Hennessey, the gynecologist, did not practice in Garden City. His office was in Manhattan, NY. (Update) She was adopted through the Surrogates Court in Nassau County (Long Island), NY. (Update) I am 90%+ sure I found my mother's birth-mother's family using DNA testing. Either the birth mother or the Veil listed the birth-mother's surname as Stuart. It was, in fact, Stunkard. I am continuing to look for Mom's birth-father's family. I know which large Colonial family she belongs to, but not his name -- not yet. I am continuing to pursue DNA testing.

Searching For: Birth Family, Birth Siblings, Medical History.
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 Uncle
All Other Information: (Update) Birth mother's hair reddish brown. Eyes hazel. Age 39. She died 12-31-1960. Her daughter, my Mom, died in 2007. My mom, sister and I left our names at the mini museum in Corry several years ago. We have not heard anything. Mom remembered hearing he was adopted by a family in Alliance, OH. Mom was unsure of father could possibly been her father also, but at the time her parents were divorcing. My grandmother lived in Greenville, PA but went to home in Corry for birth. This man, my uncle, is only 2 years older than me.
