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.

I had a son Sept.24th 1988 and his birth name was Kyle Patrick Perkins. her was about 5-6 months when he was given for adoption. He was taken from me from birth and put in a temporary foster home. I continued to visit him as long as I was allowed till the final decision was made. I was living in Oceanside, Calif. so that would be Sandiego County. I lost all hope and began to lose everything I had to drugs and alcohol. Eventually I was sent to prison here in California and lost all ties to Kyle and the family that adopted him. I was.told by Sandiego adoption agency that the family resided in Sandiego. That was maybee 20yrs ago. I have 6 other children and my youngest is 15 yrs. old. My children don’t have ac clue what Kyle looks like or where he is! I’ve told my other children about Kyle, but they never once askd where is he? I think maybe they had an Idea but didnt want me feeling any more pain than I experience everytime I.think of him. If you can help me.find him this would bring my family closer and my children that are waiting to meet Kyle. This would be awesome! I’m presently married and.the youngest child is with me she’s 15 & my grandaughter 16 which is Kyles.neice. thank you for allowing me to post this testimony on your website.

I am a African American woman born in 1967 in Kansas. My birthday is May 18,1967. I know my original preadoption birth certificate says my mom was 16 from Jackson Ms. I have done a lot of reading and I have read that if my mom was in a unwed mothers home all info about her is false. That really gives me no hope. I am 45 years old. I have had a beautiful life. I had great parents raise me. I appreciate them. I have a nice husband. My name is JLee and his is Lee. I really want to know who I am really. I was born at the University of Kansas Medical Center. I have realized there are so many people in this world that are just like me. I guess I really have a huge family. I consider every one like me is my family. I was born with no one and now I have millions of siblings all over the world. JUST LIKE ME.
Oh my mothers name was Bettye Louise Brown
Hi everyone. I’m trying to track down my birth parents. My mom gave birth to me at a hospital in Yakima WA on January 19, 1981. It was a closed adoption and my birth and adoptive parents were brought together by their mutual doctor. Lonnie Suko was the attorney. Ed and Susan Williams were the couple that adopted me. I just want you to know that I hold no grudges if you ever read this…I had a wonderful childhood. I just want to meet my other family. I have four kids and they ask about you all the time. My dad said my birth moms name may be Sherry or Cheri Fielding(s) but any info on my birth father is unknown. Should you read this and have no desire to meet that’s ok. Thank you for loving me enough to give me life, I love you. kimslane@att.net

Hello, i am still looking for my daughter I believe she lives in Austin and she will be 18 this year in December. I have found some good information on her, but what i am worried about is that because she does not know the truth she may reject me or don’t know anything about me. But she has sisters and a brother that knows about her. I’m nervous and don’t know how to approach her, I need some guidance, does anybody have suggestion or know anybody that can help? I’m not 100% but I’m almost sure it is my daughter. her first name has changed so it is hard to tell if it’s her.
Hi Carmen. One of our search consultants will email you. However, if you want to talk more quickly, please give us a call at 1-888-965-6696. Thanks!
