Given up approx 10 months of age, possibly in Grundy VA. at Mountain Mission Home. OBC NOT sealed for adoption, possible second BC, and/or name/DOB change. Also possible raised by foster family. NO info found on this name/birthdate so far. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Contact: dhenderson@gulftel.com My wife is adopted and every year around Mothers Day, she has a very hard time. She has tried in the past to find something about her birthparents. She was born at Kings Hospital in Portsmouth, VA 4-7-47. She remembers being in a couple of foster homes and was adopted by a family named Lee in Washington, DC. The Lee's were apparently killed in an auto accident. My wife was placed in a Catholic Orphanage and eventually adopted by the Sullivans of Bethesda, MD when she was about 5 years old. Can you point me in the right direction to help her find her birthparents? She was assisted by the family Priest for a while but he could not get anything from the Catholic Orphanage. She was told that the adoption records were sealed in VA and she would not be able get any information. Thanks, Don ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
