Where do I begin to look for my birth mother? I am 50 years old and I forgive her. I want so badly to know who I look like, what does she look like, do I have sisters or brothers, how tall are they, do I have nieces and nephews, do they look like my beautiful daughters? Where is my blood?
Where were you born? Were you born in the U.S? If so, in which state were you born? If so, in which state were you adopted?
Were you adopted through an agency? If so, contact them. At the very least, they will give you non-identifying information. Some of them also have search services.

Thanks so much, I was born in Little Rock, AR. On my adoption papers there is no agency mention, just probate court. What do I do with that?
I would start there and contact the court and ask them how to obtain any court records to which you're entitled and how you can obtain your non-identifying information.
Also, add your information to Arkansas' reunion registry. Most states have them. And, add whatever information you have to other registries as well, you can add your information to the Search and Reunion section on this site under the Arkansas section. Maybe a b-family member will see the information and realize who you are. Also the International Soundex Reunion Registry would be another good place to register.
