Additional Info
I recently found my above half-brother. We have been in contact with each other and have shared what we know. It's believed that his birth mother and father (my father, as well) were married but there is no concrete proof. He was told his original birth certificate was destroyed. I now believe it was sealed up and his adoptive birth certificate was amended. We are hoping to find the original birth certificate to show his birth parents' names and marriage status. We have yet to find any marriage or divorce records for his birth parents. Would these have been sealed as well? Thank you for all your help with this! Judy
