Troy Dunn – The Locator Is Now On WE Channel
Troy Dunn – The Locator
Callers and visitors to our web site have been saying that Troy Dunn – The Locator was on Dr. Phil yesterday.
Troy Dunn – The Locator has been in the business of reuniting birth parents and adoptee (s) for about twenty years. As a matter of fact, he helped his own mom, Katie Dunn an adoptee, find her birth mother. What could be better than that?
After helping his mom find her birth mother, Troy Dunn decided to dedicate his time, his resources and his life to reuniting birth family members all over the world. Even Troy’s mother is now an adoption search specialist! According to Troy, he has helped reunite thousands of families! Literally millions of people have witnessed Troy Dunn conduct reunions between birth parents and adopees on TV.
Troy Dunn has a new adoption reunion show–The Locator–on the WE Channel which premiered Sept. 6, 2008. You can catch it on Saturday evenings 9:00 PM Eastern Time / 8:00 PM Central. If you missed the first couple of episodes, you have a good chance of catching reruns on WE. Are we starting to sound like a commercial here?

My best friend Kathy was adopted 47 years ago and has always talked about trying to locate her birth mother. Recently both of her adoptive parents have passed away and she has no siblings from them. She knows her mother was a marine, her name, where she was originally from, age at her birth and where she was stationed when she delivered her. I just want to know where to start to help her find her.
Thanks

I’ve been looking at your show and I also remember seeing you on Montel, took your advice, to no avail. no matter what I did I came back to the same dead-end. I am looking for my dad. My Mom, never to reveal any info. Making me think all kinds of crazy things. I think this case would be the most hardest one you ever had to take on. Because, its been the most hardest I ever had to deal with,I had to grow up with lies, different dads, none who ever loved me, the most hurtful thing was my mom could not tell me the TRUTH as she Knew. My story is way worst than this. But all I Want to know is, the truth. I have his name, but Im asking for some help, maybe I might have some sisters or brothers I dont know. I hope your mom is looking at this and thinks this might be something you can do. I would like to know before I I give up my hope to Know something that is true.My E-mail is donna10110@verizon.net

my story is like so many others,
I have 2 sisters that were adopted out 53 years ago through private lawyers.our mother was young and widowed by time she was 19. and was a very passive person allowing others to dictate her life,When I was born my mother was only 17 and put into a girls home for unwed mothers, and was raised by my maternal grand mother. I am the oldest, and have searched for my sisters for over 30 years.unfortunatly i cannot afford the price I was quoted to make a search. please help i have some details, birthdays, birth names, and where they were born.
Hello, my name is Cathy Collinson. I am trying to locate my husbands’ 2 grown daughters. His name is Joseph Collinson and he was married to their mother for almost 17 or 18 years. He was in the Air Force and stationed all over, but the main place was Las Vegas, NV (he was at Nellis AFB then). He was then sent to Moody AFB in Georgia, where he retired. His wife wanted to go back to Las Vegas, he wanted to raise the family in a quiet, peaceful rural area, she left and took the girls with her. He heard from them a couple times after that, but then his she changed her phone number and started sending the mail back unopened. The oldest is Sheila Kay Collinson, d/o/b 11/19 or 21/1978. She married Gilberto Hernandez in 1998 or 99. I think they still live in Las Vegas. Tammy Michelle was born 2 years later, Nov. either 19 or 21. I haven’t been able to find any trace of her. I have their soc sec numbers and some old photos. Their mother is Eddie Laura Collinson, and they have an older brother named Wendell (my husband adopted him, his last name is also Collinson). We just want to find out if they are okay and MAYBE form a relationship with them, IF THEY WANT TO. Please help us. Thank you and God bless.

My step mom was adopted as a baby and has always wanted to find her parents. She says she doesn’t have time and money to hire someone to find them but i think its just fear. She says when she is more settled she will find them. But i don’t want this time to keep going just in case something happens to her birth parents and she won’t have the chance to ever meet them or find out if she has brothers and sisters. Her adopted parents are almost 90 and my step mom is only 41 and an only child. My step mom has 1 child thats 11 and also wants to know who his grandparents are. What can i do? I would really need your help. She hates knowing once her adopted parents die she will be alone with no extended family. She has non. Please help me, i really want to do this for her.
thank you

i am looking for my son, who was born, nov 4th 1992 in sarasota fl, he was born in sarasota memorial hospital, his doctors name was dr.meyer, he was born 11′14am. i gave my son up because i couldnt care for him, i had been an abused wife for a long time, i wasnt emotionally fit to take crae of him, because i couldnt take care of myself, i wanted the best for him, and until i got help for myself, which i knew would take a long time, i wanted him to have a happy home, i spent the three days in the hospital with him and said my goodbye, but never a day goes by that i dont ache for him, i didnt want him to be in a abusive situation, i loved him too much, my name for him at the hospital was johnathan edward shlezinger, i am also on the adoption registtry under his name . he just turned 17, and i am hoping that he is looking for me, i dont have money for a investigator, and i am a single parent, he has three sisters, also, maybe you can help me, i pray every day that one day i will get to meet my son, and tell him why and that how much i have loved him, it tore me apart to give him up, but as much as i loved him, my mental state was not enough to be a mom to him, i wnated the best for him
I wasn’t adopted however I might as well have been. My parents were together for a short period of time and with that short relationship my mother became pregnant with me. My father never knew anything about me. He never knew I was his. My mom came back to her hometown to raise me with her family. I’ve searched my entire life for my dad. But I only know a few things about him. Someone once told me that my search was hopeless without a social security number. All I know is my fathers name and that he was lasted stationed at Fort Polk Louisiana in the United Sates Army. I know that my situation is unlike that of a child who was adopted but I know what it’s like to search forever and not find any hope. So I’m thankful that you have been able to find many birth parents for all these wonderful people. Keep up the good work!
Hi Brittany. Please send us your father’s name and we’ll have a look for you. Also, let us know how old you think he is and when he was stationed at Fort Polk.
You can email the information to me at danabetz@omnitrace.com

Looking for son given up born May 16,1984 in Columbus, GA, Fort Benning, born in Martin Army Hospital. At the time of his birth he had a brother and sister now a younger sister.
Does anyone know of a website where the biological mother can put in a date that would match if a child put in the same date? Seems like there must be an easier way for parents and children to find each other. Everyone has a birth date and usually a birth place. I’m trying to help two people – girl born July 17, 1963 and boy born September 16, 1967. Both born in Manhattan at Doctors Hospital. Adopted into the same family. Can anyone find a match?
I need to know my sisters an borthers i love them an dont even know them so can u help me an my baby kaylon find them.

Looking for my husbands father. From the beging he has been told that he belongs to this man. We found out last Friday that this man of 35 years is not his dad..threw a DNA test. To his mother shock..she finally told us the other mans name that she had been with. I have been on the computer and phone all weekend. And I have come up with nothing. She remembers his name and the town where they meet. My husband is very hurt. He wont even talk to his mom. I think if we found this man. It would mend and heal thier relationship. Also I think this man deserves to know he has a son. Please help me find him!
