I was born at Ohio Valley General Hospital. It is likely that my birth mother was at the Crittendon Home in West Virginia.
My birth is registered in Ohio County. My (adoptive) parents are listed as Fern and Lester Willingham. They were from Jefferson County, West Virginia. I was told that all other information (orginal birth certificate) was destroyed.
My (adoptive) mother has never been forthright about my birth history, and there is also a birth certificate with the same information on record at the Jefferson County Courthouse. My place of birth is documented and handwritten in the record book as Ohio Valley General Hospital.
I have reason to believe that a biological sibling attempted to contact me at my home just over a year ago, and my mother took the call and denied everything.
If anyone has any information, or if any parts of my story are familiar, please feel free to contact me through this forum or at ddwwelsh@yahoo.com.
