I am trying to verify the identity of my birth mother. I was born in St. Petersburg, FL, at Mound Park Hospital, on May 4, 1951. My name at birth was Jody Lynn Curti. My adoption was private, handled by an attorney (Harold S. Mokotoff), and my adoptive parents paid the expenses of my birth mother, who spent the last months of her pregnancy in St. Petersburg. (She was from New York City.) I have reason to believe that her name was Cecile Krimsky. She was 23 at the time of my birth. She may have used an alias in the hospital and wherever she was staying before I was born, possibly the last name "Curti." I would like to find out whether she stayed at the Florence Crittenton Home for unwed mothers in the Tampa/St. Pete area and to verify the name she used when I was born, for the purpose of obtaining my original birth certificate. Thank you.
