Additional Info
It’s possible that the child my mother gave up for adoption in 1958 is Donald Wood and was raised in Eyota Minnesota. I found someone through 23andme that could very likely be my half-niece and her mother has a birth record in Virginia so her father, Donald Wood, could be my half-brother.
