My Mother read me my adoption papers the other day, but she hasn't given them to me yet. (I just found out I was adopted a few months ago, and I am 40 years old.) She seemed to think the name listed was my FIRST name, but it sounds like a last name (meehan).
MY adoption was finalized in Staten Island, NY, although I was born elsewhere. Does anyone know if the birth parent's name was listed on adoption papers in 1969 in NY?
Thanks in advance!
That sucks being told so late in life. I really feel for you.
Your mom has your adoption papers and won't let you see them? Personally I'd insist on getting a copy or I'd be cutting ties. But that is me. I tend to overreact sometimes.
If the papers are the official papers than I would suspect that the birth mothers name should be on it. But again I am not an expert.

Hi, thanks for your response. I didn't mean to insinuate that my Mother won't give me the papers, I haven't seen her and didn't want them sent thru the mail.
