Additional Info
This was a private adoption my mother arranged, I never knew the adoptive parents names. I understand that in Texas the adoptive parents can place their name on the birth certificate to erase all history of birth parents. I lived with a woman named Judy Fortenberry while I was pregnant. I was told that she was the sister of the adoptive mother, I believed this at the time, but now understand she may have been a paid facilitator. I lived in the Woodlands TX, at the time I became pregnant, the doctor who tested me for pregnancy had a connection to the couple that were interested in adopting, his name was Dr. Lavender. This the only information I have.
