I am adopted (Houston TX 1960) I discovered my amended birth cert number MATCHES as does my dob for Deborah Lyn Gilpin..Is there birth parent info buried in the registry somewhere. Realizing I had a birth name-with the stories I was told as a child and adult by a/mother--I need to find the truth. Catholic CHarites has not responded. I have registered with TX registry--and TX CARE also. Do you know of another way???
