Additional Info
This is all the information I have. My mother put a child up for adoption and I think it was 1968 as I was born in 1970. She was young and unmarried and wanted to give the baby a great family life but didn't think that was possible so she put her up for adoption. My mother still doesn't like to talk about it and I didn't find out till I was a teenager.
