My boyfriend is adopted and within the past year has been curious to find his birth parents. His adoption was processed in Union County Pennsylvania and as I said he was born on 5/2/1984. I am unsure of the hospital he was born at but will post after talking to him again. He has asked that I help and this was the only way I could think of how to do it. If you have any information please let me know. Thank you tremendously for any and all help.

He just received notification of his birth mom's name; it was the only thing in the file. Victoria Holmes at the time of his birth could have a different last name as of now. We don't know how old she was or any other information. If anyone has any information with the previous info provided and now his birth mother's name please respond. It will be greatly appreciated.
Carmelcat, I was born and adopted in PA. Altho it was a different era from your BF maybe I can help.The sealed record law in PA has been amended so that adoptees may review what is in their file.I suggest 2 things, request the court to provide the information he wants and additionally ask the court to give him a copy of his adoption decree. Try to remember that information contained in court records relates only to the court proceedings involved with the adoption. There is no personal information in those records. He may get information from the adoption decree that gives him his birth name...unless that information is sealed.In Pa, adoptions are heard through the Adoption Court and the records for adoptions are held in the county where the final adoption took place.I wish you the best.
Just wanted to say hi. I am also handling the search for my boyfriend. In Illinois I was able to have his original birth certificate sent and through internet searches could contact information and pictures. Initial call to birth mom was not well received. Good luck to you! Feel free to contact me if you need moral support since we are both doing the search for someone else.
