E-mail change Information
The following is for those of you who have had to change your e-mail address. We have all had to do it at one time or other. It is extremely difficult to change your address to all of your search sites if you are organized enough to even remember where you have already registered. I have a couple of tips on what to do if you do have to change your address.
1) The first thing I would do is go to Iwon.com and put in your old e-mail address in the isearch box...... It's kind of creepy, but it will pull up places where your e-mail address is listed on the web. (I've actually done this) You can then go to those places and ask them to change your address. I really think it is the best search on the web. I've found pretty much everything I've ever looked for on here.
2) In case it misses any, there are a few places I know of to list your old and new e-mail addy... the first couple are free of charge. .
Findmemail
and
Emailchange
This one is $10 for a lifetime listing. Emailfinder
As far as places to register again if need to, there are a ton of registry sites on our webpage. The addy's are for Region Specific Registries which lists the specific state registries you were adopted through or searching in and Registry links which lists multi-state registries on which you can be from any state to register.

Searching for Siblings This site is intended to assist those of us both adopted & kept to locate siblings lost to adoption. Our searches are among the most difficult due to the fact that we often are looking with the most minimal details. Most of us start the search for siblings after finding our birth mothers or other birth relatives. So at the point when we think our search is over we find that it is just beginning.
Since there are many sites on the net that offer good search info we will simply add a page with links to these sites. Our main purpose is to offer a registry where you can post your search for siblings. Our links page will offer other sites to post your search for other birth relatives.
