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.
Please write or comment if you have any questions on how to find an adoptee.

I am looking for my nephew who was put up for adoption at birth. He was born in Philadelphia on May 14, 1989. My brother, his father’s name is Stephen Patrick Poglitsch. The baby’s birth mother was Mary Beth Goss (sp?). They were both teenages at the time and gave the baby up for adoption. My brother has since married and has an 11 year old son who wants nothing more than to meet his brother.
looking for a daughter born on 01/03/1998 at community hospital in roanoke,va.24013…her name at birth was breionna ann wells…she is a mixed female with mother white and father african american….. if god willing hope to find…
I named her Charlotte, the caseworker from DHS, Darlene Larwence may have given her my last name, Burnett. Charlotte was born on May the 8th 1982 in Harrison Arkansas at the Boone County Hospital. She had red hair and blue eyes at birth.
If she is interested in meeting her biological mother, I pray this will simplify it for her.
I just remembered, I got a letter from the Dept. of Human Services in Boone County. It told me a little bit about the family that adopted Charlotte. In 1982, she had a six year old brother, a stay at home mom. And if I remember correctly a dad that worked with or on computers.
I am trying to find my 2 cousins a boy, birth name Dustin Daniel Bryant at birth Jan 17th i believe 1994 (not 100%) and his sister, birth name Amber Michelle (lynn) Colon, dob March 28, 1996
their birth father (my uncle) passed away last year due to heart problems at the age of 38, and they or at least their current parents need to know so they can have them checked. and i would like to meet them one day.
