I found my "birth-family" pretty easily as my birthmom had sent pictures of my siblings to my parents and until all the paperwork had been finalized, they'd been in pretty constant contact. What I wasn't ready for was the loathing of my blood-siblings. Or at least my sisters. We are half native american but they refuse to give me any of the necessary information that I need to contact our tribe and they are the only ones with the information. My birthmom is deceased and was when I first made contact. I know nothing of maternal family. When I pressed the issue their phone numbers changed and I recieved threats of police restraining orders. I don't understand the hostility, all I asked for was information pertaining to our genealogy.
Sometimes I prefer to believe I wasn't adopted. This adoptee was seriously disappointed in her *bfamily*...anyone else have a similar experience?
Chickennoodlemom, I'm very sorry to hear that your n-family members have reacted that way. Are you able to contact anybody else in your n-family? Perhaps someone else could give you your info.

It sounds like they are banded together to hide something from you. Maybe if you approached an Aunt or Uncle you could get some insight.
