If you can find your half sisters birth record (which will include your mothers first name and maiden name) there will be a certificate number. Then you go through the same registry and match it up to the same number. This should give you adopted name and adopted mother's first and maiden name. This book is available in the main branch at the library.

This is a long shot, as I've been told that I was born in Victoria, TX (not in KY) on 9-5-67. I was also told that I was given the name, Sherry Renee at birth. It is not uncommon for agencies or birth mothers to lie about the location in which their child was born. If you'd like, you may email me at: AmericanWomanM67@aol.com

That is not exactly the way to do it. It actually requires a couple different databases, but I can do it correctly or show you how to.
Tiffanie, I was born June 28, 1867 in Louisville, but I was adopted and raise in Hopkinsville, by an older couple. According to the nonidentifying information I was given, the names donot match, but who knows, stanger things have happened. My birth name, I am told, was Latonya Tandalet Dean. that's all i know. My email address is bldavis@vuu.edu or KychocolateHoney @aol.com or TheUnioness @aol.com. Send me an email. Nothing beats a failure but a try. Latonya
