Additional Info
My Birth Mother was 19 at the time of my birth and was to turn 20 later that year. She had brown curly hair and brown eyes. She was unwed and single during her pregnancy and my birth. My Birth Father denied being my father. He was 26. I have more info about their heritage and their siblings as well as parents and so on as well.
Adoption Info: Seneca County Social Services - Child Services Division (I have the case workers names for there as well). My adoption was finalized through Livingston County Social Services (Geneseo, NY) at the Livingston County Court House (Geneseo, NY), and Robert Wiggins was the attorney.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION: When the adoption was finalized I received a non-identifying information packet which was full of descriptions of my parents and families. There were no names with the exception of the caseworkers involved in the adoption.
I also have a letter from my birth mother which she wrote 2 days after I was born explaining why she placed me for adoption. Unfortunately that does not give anything identifying.
MEDICAL ISSUES: I am diabetic and in 2000 I spent 3 months in the hospital with nearly fatal pancreatitis (assumably caused by gallstones), which I deal with every
day. I have hypothyroidism, which the doctors are having trouble regulating. AND I am a Cervical Cancer Survivor.

15 years of searching and still holding hope!
