As I tried to explain, the majority of folks who post here are trying to find a family member, generally in their generation....like siblings, or a parent who placed them for adoption.There are several wonderful researchers on this forum who are really knowlegable in the ways of helping withthis sort of request, but looking for a long dead ancestor....who may or may not have been adopted.....is a completely different thing, and as such the way you look for a relatively recent adoption has nothing in common with how you go about finding someone who was adopted long ago....As a genealogist, I know this to be true....I'm good at finding things from the long past.... but sure not from modern times..and, by this I mean a generation ago...everything about where you look is different.I gave you some tips on how you might have a better chance in finding the info you seek....and, I wish you luck.
