Need list of Maternity Homes in KC, MO

Hi! I too had to begin with takinga loof at Maternity Homes in KC MO. I don't have a full list but there are 2 ways you can to this and maybe even get ahead of the game. First, The Main branch of the Kansas City Library has an online dialogue service where you can get on the site, send a question and have a "chat" with a research librarian to get the infor. it's free and works very well. Also - I found out that in MO, our birth certs are filed in 2 differetn places and the one in Jefferson City, not Kansas City contains the complete information. Contact Rosalee Schottel at the Dept of Family Services in Jefferson City. She is the adoption specialist. For $15.00 you can get a copy of the orginial cert and it MAY contain the name of the Home. The Kansas City copy will not. I bought both anyway. Also through Rosalee, for $50.00, you can apply for your "non-identification" information from your adoption file. She was even nice enough to pull the file and read some of it over the phone for me. It confirmed that I was born at The Willows. I would speak with Rosalee FIRST while she is looking at your file and ask her if there is a lot or just a little there so you know what amount of infor you might be getting so your expectations aren't flattened when the info finally arrives. rosalee_k_schottel@osca.state.mo.us that's her email. Her number is (816) 435-4788 Good Luck. Feel free to contact me anytime Radiodoll
