Diane
F/adoptee ISO bfamily born 02/17/1961
The three worst swear words are Black Market Adoptee. We have
NO way of knowing who we are, where we come from, or where we
belong. We live with lies, false paperwork, and no way to find
the truth. I'm a 40 yr old woman with just this problem. My DOB
is Feb 17,1961, so it says on my false BC.

The clues to my life are as follow. I was adopted out of lawyers
office on around Feb 23,1961. The lawyer was Mr. John Cenesky,
still living, but he will not help me in anyway, 1)Afamily said that one day I was just there, no one knew about my Aparents adopting another child and there is no paperwork for me. 2) I have an older adopted brother by three years and all of the family know about him and where he came from. There is paperwork for him. 3)My aparents had just lost their only child in birth in Nov,1960, they were in their 40's when they got me 4) I have filed every paper one can with NY State and nothing there, but false BC.

Facts that I do know, was adopted in upstate NY, adoption was final on March 1962. I was told by family I was a small baby with blondie hair and blue eyes. The all american baby. Now at 40 I have lite brown hair and hazel eyes, stand 5/2 and have
to wear glasses due to lazy eye.

My Amother has passed, but my Afather tells me that my Bmother was around 17 and was to be of Irish desent. Of course I have nothing to back this up. He also told me that I'm not a legal adoptee. My Afather said one day that he had paid enough for me the first
time.

I have no way of knowing what happen at the time of my birth. Maybe my bmother was told I had major health problems, maybe it was arranged though a family member of hers, she may have been told that I dead at birth. So many horror stories to be told. But if your out there I'm looking for you, not to hurt or blame you, just missing that piece of my heart.

So here I sit and nowhere to turn, all I have is question about my life.If you think you know who I am, please contact me.
