Hi,
I am trying to do some research for my husbands grandmother who passed in 1977, she was
adopted. Her husband and adoptive parents have passed and so has her adopted sibs. So I
am trying to locate whom her biological parents are. I have a list of female children
that where born in Indiana on her birth date (per SSDI) for 15 Feb 1912.
This is one of the names from Daviess county, that I have:
(2) Emil W. Cox and Dale Winklepeck had child Mary E. Cox.
If you should know any of three names, but can't connect the others, it is possible
because of an adoption. Or if you should have the three together and by 1916 or 1918, you
can't find them all together, this could also be helpful. She was adopted when she
was between the ages of 4 & 6. I have no idea how long she spent in the home or if
it was a short time, or what might have happened to her parents, so any help at all with
one or all three names would be soooooo appreciated.
I would like to add, that for those of you who may have been adopted or was an adoptive
parent or just fill that this is not correct, I have included a long history of her
adoptive parents history on my data base (which is really quite interesting) , but I
really would like to give her biological parents the same chance.
So, if You should know anything about any one of them (James S. Brewer; Jospehine McAtree
or Mildred Brewer ) please let me know, I really would appreciate it.
Thanks!
Sheila
