Additional Info
I am looking for any of my birth family including an apparent twin sister (believed to be fraternal). I am a female who was born 1-31-1955. I’m unsure of the exact city or county of birth, but my adoption was handled through Alamance County Social Services. I was born at 12:08 a.m., weighted 4 lbs, 8 ozs and was 17' long. My twin sister was born at 12:05 a.m. and weighed 5 lbs., 15 ozs. My twin sister & I were both adopted out to separate families. I was placed in my adoptive home on 10-31-1955. My twin sister had been placed in another adoptive home earlier in October 1955. My birth mother applied for maternity home services with Alamance County in early November 1954. She was admitted to a maternity home (exact one & location are not known) in December 1954 and expected to deliver in February 1955; however, we came at approximately 36 weeks gestation on 1-31-1955. My birth mother had only one brother, who was approximately a year younger then she was. My birth maternal grandfather and birth maternal grandmother got divorced in fall 1952. My mother supposedly worked in a mill and she left school halfway through the 11th grade. She was approximately 5’9” tall, weighed 130 lbs., she had gray eyes and brown hair, a fair complexion. My birth mother was 20 years old at my birth. My birth father supposedly completed the 11th grade, worked with my birth mother but then was drafted and was in the Army. He was described as 6’1” tall, 190 lbs., with blue eyes and blonde hair, a fair complexion. From the non-ID information, it appears that I was blonde and my twin sister was brunette. Currently, I am approximately 5’8” tall, with blue eyes and blonde hair.
