Additional Info
My brother lived in Morris NY with foster mom named Ellien Bradburry until he was maybe 2. Then moved to another foster home until 'Butchy' was adopted in Montgomery County on July 2, 1956. His birth mother and siblings are all searching for him. Mom was pressured to give him up as she was too young. She never wanted to. Nicknamed Butchy by his foster mom.
