Attention adoption Angels

Question

Can someone please help me find Ancestors of my Maternal Grandfather Franklin James Kern who was married to Eula Jean Cartwright, they had 6 children including my mother, my grandfather was adopted and I only have dead ends.  He's still alive but I'm having trouble reaching him. He's approx 84-87 years old

Answer 1

Kendra,  if you edit your question and change the adoption tag to adoption_angels you will get a faster answer from one of them here.

You could also click Help on the tiny text menu at top right of any WikiTree page, then click Adoption Angels on the list that drops down to get to the form you can submit directly to them.  THIS IS A LINK directly to that form.

Thank you Gaile for providing the link to the application 

Answer 2

Hi Kendra,

I work with the Adoption Angels. Have you taken a DNA test? When working with adoptions further back, paperwork is harder to come by. This is when DNA can be invaluable. Using the DNA, you can discover the birth family of an adoptee. I would be happy to advise you on DNA testing if you wish to send me a message. Also, as Gaile suggested, if you fill out the Adoption Angels application, an Angel can work with you on the search. However, they would need the DNA test to make much headway.

Emma :-)

I am adopted and my dna test significantly helped me to unravel my birth father information which was not disclosed at the time of my birth
