Hi,
I am currently looking for my birth parents, and so far, I have had no luck whereever I have turned. My birth name is Donald Ray Chaney, Born in Baton Rouge, La. on April 12th, 1977. The only information I have is that the last name of the "father" on my birth certificate is "Chaney". My biological mother was in her teens at the time, I believe she was 15 at the time, and that her best friend, not my true biological father signed as the father so that I would assume his last name. I would like to meet my true biological parents, and I will continue to search. I am now 27 years old.
Thanks in advance,
Donnie Kinchen

Just wanted to say welcome and to wish you luck in your search.I too am from Louisiana (new Orleans area).The search gurus have some good state specific search info and there are many wonderful people from all sides of the triad that are always willing to share their experience in searching, what worked and what didn't.
Make sure to register at adoption.com and ISRR.
Again, best of luck to you with your search.

Well, this was back in 2004. It is now 2014, 10 years later, and I still have not found my birth parents. I will continue to search until my last breath.
Thank you for your support,
