I am in search of any siblings or other family members. Mothers name was Grace Avers, Father a Mr. Howard. Grace was 41 yrs. old when she had me and had 4 older children. Birth certificate says she was born in Kempton Ill, but so far cant prove it.

I am blown away to have gotten a reply! Bless you! ...Yes I have come to the same conclusion as you have. I did post to the Ford Co. board and was told there were no records of any Avers there. They said Avery but no avers. Also I found the same Grace Howards birth and death date and almost sent for it. May do it yet. Birth Certificate said baby name at birth was Violet Mae Avers. When she ( She is my Aunt, in her 70's and fast losing hope),was sent to the Cradle in Evanston, they changed her name to Deborah Howard. Then she was adopted and her name changed again. The doctor on her birth certificate says C.O. Hershey. The birth certificate also gives an address for the mother, but when I tried to look it up on mapquest it kept changing the name, and on maps.com just said no such address. BUT, this was from 1930. I Thank-you from the bottom of my heart for listening. I am just trying to help my Aunt and am getting frusterated. This makes genealogy seem easy! Lol. If you have any suggestions, please reply. I can use all the help I can get.
Thank-you,
Julie
PS Also has 2 different birthdays listed. BC says may 15 and adoption says May16

Hi There!
Yes I would very much appreciate you looking up the death notice. Was Graces birthdate July 15th? I dont really know if that is correct though. And where did you get the birth weight? It isnt on her birth certificate, but she says yes, 5 lbs. 2 oz. is correct. You have my curiosity and attention now...LOl.
Thank-you,
Julie
