I am looking for a search Angel in Illinois to help me in my search. Actual birth took place in California but we believe birth mother was married in Illinois. We know that her mother and step father were living in Illinois at the time of the birth. Also birth mother was born in Michigan, her mother and father divorced when she was 3 years old. Birth mother was adopted by stepfather when she was a child. We know her maiden name was "Jones" (not sure if that is father or step fathers last name). Also husband's last name was either "King" or "Stahl" We know that birth mother was 22 at the time of the birth and had two sons, 5 and 3. There is no record of either boy being born in California (did several searches and there was no boy born at the right age with mothers maiden name as Jones), so we believe that they were born in Illinois before the parents moved to California. Birth mother's mom was 40 in 1964 and diagnosed with Adult onset diabetes.
I am hoping to find a search angel that might be able to help me search birth, marriage, and death records that might fit with my information.
Please contact me here or privately (screen name at mchsi.com), which ever you prefer, and thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

UPDATE: We got confirmation today that Lawrence Dale Stahl WAS my husband's birth father. He passed away in 2006. We were able to track down his ex wife, and he had told her about my husband!! She also gave us the birth mothers name - Linda King!! Now I am looking for ANY info I can find on her. We know that she was born in Michigan, was 22 in 1964 (making her born 1941 or 1942). Her mother was living in Illinois in 1964. She was married with two boys - one was 5 and one was 3 in 1964. Linda was adopted by her step father when she was a young child, her maiden name was listed as Jones, but we don't know if that is her fathers name or her step fathers. She also had stated to the adoption agency that her father was part Chippewa Indian. If this means anything to anyone, please contact us.
If anyone has access to a marriage index for Illinois, I would appreciate it if you could look up a marriage for Linda Jones to a man with the last name King sometime between 1957 and 1959. Thanks!!
