Anna and Nelson Ford - NJ
Hi- I am looking for info.
My mother was adopted when she was 3-5 years old. We are looking for her birth parents. We have search Newspapers and have found that her birth parents names are Anna and Nelson Ford. But this is all we know of them. Looking back we see there were 2-3 sons born to them before my mother was born. My mom's birth date is January 4, 1951 - NJ - we think her birth name was Mariam. The adoption was done in a small court house and her parents are not much help with details. NJ is not much help as the files are sealed.
WE do know that during the adoption my grandparents met the birth father - Nelson - and said he was sick. We think Anna had left the family. That is why the state was taking the children. We think that Nelson and Anna was somewhere involved with the military or alike. We were also told Anna was a "floater" and had several men.
Any help on this family would be great. Wish we had more to offer as help.
