Your posting caught my attention. I am helping my sister-in-law search for her birth mother. She was born to a GLORIA in Gallup NM at a Catholic hospital on 4/1/56. Her dr. was a Dr. Pousma, and supposedly this dr. went back to Grand Rapids Michigan after he retired--but has supposedly disappeared off the face of the earth--probably passed away. Anyway---with her to---there are no records at all. STRANGE and FISHY how those records seem to DISAPPEAR or be burned up or whatever!!

HELLO....I THINK A LOT OF THESE DOCTORS WERE INVOLVED IN THE BLACKMARKETTING OF BABYS BACK IN THE 30S-40S-50S. IT WAS SO WIDESPREAD THAT THE DOCTORS,LAWYERS,CHURCHES AND THE GOVERNMENT WERE INVOLVED BECAUSE OF THE $$$$$$$ WAS GOOD. LOOK ON SOME OF THE BLACKMARKET BABY SITES AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK....HUGS JANET
My name is Doug Pousma. You are referring to my great uncle, Richard Hettema Pousma, MD who passed away in the late 1970's. Coincidentally, I am also a physician. I found this site and your thread only because I GOOGLED my last name. Laugh. Anyway, Uncle Rich (Dr. Pousma) worked in Gallup (and also probably Rehobeth), New Mexico in the 1940's, perhaps the 1950's. He worked there as a medical missionary until his church called him to China (after the Boxer Rebellion). I don't have his clinical records, but if there is any way I can help you access them, please let me know. My e-mail is dougpousma@comcast.net. I won't post my phone number here for security reasons.

This question was posted 14 years ago...but, Dr. Jarvis delivered me, in the late 1940s, in The Eveline Home and Hospital. It was run by the Salvation Army. I was able to contact them and get my, and my mom's medical records.
