My first post here - never thought I'd be at an adoption forum!

I had never known of any adopted children in my immediate family, so my interest in the subject was low. Imagine my surprise :eek: when my mother told me yesterday that she had just found out that HER mother had given a child up for adoption. This would have happened in Denver between late 1937 and early 1939. I'll need to talk to Grandma's sister to find out a close birthdate, and maybe even where she relinquished the child. My grandmother (the birth mother)'s first name is Frances. The birth father's first name was probably Wyatt. I don't even know yet if the child was male or female. I wanted to get a good start, though; if this person can be found, he or she has 3 sisters and a brother who'd like to meet him or her. I will post more as I find out. Kim
