Hello, My name is Bella. I just learned from my Uncle that my mother Anneliese gave a child up for adoption in Chicago, Illionois in 1963. I have no idea where she is or what her name is. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start. My mother, father and grandmother are deceased.
Looking to have a relationship with her. I have 3 brothers and a half sister.
God Bless and Thank you,
Bella

1. Post your search on the registry on this site using only the info you have: female/1963/Chicago Il/Anneliese and then go through the listings for any possible matches. 2. Did your mom have any close friends from back then? Ask them, even if you only get a month of birth it will narrow your search. 3. With your siblings you have the ablity to dna test against any possible matches and it is affordable. Best of luck in your search, your sister is lucky to have you even if she doesn't know it. Take care,Dickons

I am so thankful for the advice Dickons. I appreciate it so much. I'm not really certain of any friends. She was a young lady living in Berlin, Germany when she met the soldier who got her pregnant.
Her Mother and Step Father sent her away to give birth and they didnt see her for 6 years after. After she gave birth she was given a plane ticket to Norfolk Virginia where she met and married my half sisters father, they divorced 3 years later. I am in contact with him and he has given me some timeline information. He says he met met her while serving in the USAF he was stationed stateside as was my Step Grandfather. They dated for 2 years but something just didnt add up. Her family moved her to Berlin and then sent her to the Florence Crittenton Home. He couldnt really make since of why? She never told him either. I really dont evern know when she married my father. Im certainly in shock of what she did and decided never to tell us. She has passed away now for 13 years. My father passed away 31 years ago, my grandmother (moms mom) passed away 4 years ago.
When she had us 5 kids we were born one after another. Twins Boy/Girl born Nov 1966, Me Feb 68, Brother Feb 69, Brother Nov 70.
Dad passed away Dec 22 1977.
Have a wonderful day.
Bella:thanks:
