I was born (out of wedlock) 28 Dec 1945 to Edna Lucille Julian; Julian-2149, 1919-1985 and Thomas Leolian Eudy; Eudy-449. 1923-1974 in Great Falls Montana. At birth I was adopted by John Alexander Matchett Jr, 1909-1990 and Martha Smith Matchett, 1910-1996.
I have taken DNA tests on Ancestry, 23andMe and MyHeritage. All are as Russell Matchett, but my full name is John Russell Matchett. When communicating, I use mom/dad for my adoptive parents and mother/father for my bio-parents. I do not appreciate those folks who I might try to contact, not at least acknowledging me. I have 5 younger half siblings (1 now deceased) on mothers' side and 1 older half sibling on my father's side.

Biography
I was born (out of wedlock) 28 Dec 1945 to Edna Lucille Julian; Julian-2149, 1919-1985 and Thomas Leolian Eudy; Eudy-449. 1923-1974 in Great Falls Montana. At birth I was adopted by John Alexander Matchett Jr, 1909-1990 and Martha Smith Matchett, 1910-1996.
I have taken DNA tests on Ancestry, 23andMe and MyHeritage. All are as Russell Matchett, but my full name is John Russell Matchett. When communicating, I use mom/dad for my adoptive parents and mother/father for my bio-parents. I do not appreciate those folks who I might try to contact, not at least acknowledging me. If you aren't interested, out of respect for me and our families, at least let me know your decision. Basically, 90% of everything that I have found on Mother's side and 100% of my father's side has been found out since Mar 2022. I probably am not correct enough for some of you, but that's what happens when you finally get started finding your blood relations after 3 quarters of a century.
I have 5 younger half siblings (2 F & 3 M with 1 of the males now deceased) on mothers' side and 1 older half sibling (F) on my father's side. Present active surname is Matchett, but as mentioned above, Mother's Family surname is Julian and Father's Family Surname is Eudy, so those are the names I am following.
I am more than willing to share any of my information to other possible family members (including some from the adopted side).
