Additional Info
I do not believe that the bio father was aware of the pregnancy nor would he have been listed on the OBC, I only have that information from my mother. And having listed him as Kenyon's father on my ancestry I have been trying to locate his possible father and in doing so I believe that his actual name might be John Joseph Tuminello vs Joseph Taminello....DNA would be great however until I locate my brother I won't know this for sure or not so I listed him as mom told me his name and I spelled it phonetically.
