Find Adoptee | Search By Date Of Birth Of Child
Adoptee Search
You may be surprised that you can find an adoptee by having just the date of birth of your
birth child. It’s true: having just a date of birth can lead to a successful adoptee search!
If you can recall your child’s date of birth, online databases are available to compile a list of persons, along with their addresses and phone numbers, born on that date of birth who currently or previously have been associated with the state where the adoptee was born. This list might be quite large, depending on the state, but will give you a reasonable chance to find your birth child by placing phone calls and writing letters.
(If you do not recall the exact date of birth, there are several ways you may obtain it, which we will provide you shortly in a future post.)
Of course, any additional identifying information on your birth child that you have or can obtain in addition to the date of birth will help you develop an even better, more focused list–or perhaps even an exact match. Helpful information might include:
- The amended (adoptive) first and/or last name of your birth child
- The first and/or last names of the adopting parents
- The age range of the adopting parents
- The non-amended, (original name) of your birth child
- The occupation of the adopting parents
- The area where the adopting parents resided at the time of the adoption
- The race and religion of the adopting parents
- The education of the adopting parents
- The name of the adoption agency or attorney that handled the adoption
- The name of the birth physician
- The name of the birth hospital
- When the adopting parents applied to adopt
- The hobbies of the adopting parents
- The medical history of the adopting parents
- The physical description of the adopting parents
- Other historical information
Some or all of the above information might be developed from a number of sources that we will write about shortly. We’ll also discuss statewide date of birth searching.

Hello Everyone,
I am searching for my biological son. He was born on November 12, 1988 at 8:48pm in Kansas City, Kansas. His birth was an emergency c-section performed by Dr. Mark Curry. I named him Andrew David at that time. His adopted parents changed his name to Mikel Benjamin (last name unknown). I know that the first names of the couple who adopted him are Dan & Doris. I was told that Doris was a teacher. The adoption was through Highlands Child Placement Service, Kansas City, MO. If you have any information that may help me in my search for my biological son, please post a comment here. I appreciate any leads anyone may have.
God Bless,

Hi everyone,
I am helping my mother look for her son, my half brother who was born 05/26/1968 in Dallas, TX. In my research I have found that this information may have been changed given the circumstances of adoptions done for unwed mothers at the time. The alias she was required to use by the ‘Maternity Home’ was Nancy Nichols but her true name at the time was Margawyn (Maggie) Elfman. He was born St. Paul’s Hospital at 12:06 a.m. He was delivered by Dr. Black. He was 8lb. 13 oz. The biological father was residing in Montreal at the time. She was only able to hold him once and she said he had red hair (like hers) and ice blue eyes. We have no expectations, we only want to have the chance to let him know that despite everything, he was and IS very very loved.
