I am searching for my birthmother: Edna (las name unknown). Evans was a family name and I was told that she was from Ohio. (I do not know if Edna may have been a middle name that she used), Edna was born in the summer of 1925 in a Mid-Western state. Her mother died when she was 5 yrs old. She went to live with her maternal grandmother on a farm. Her Dad died when she was 11 yrs. old. She was 5'5" with wavy black hair and hazel eyes. Edna lived in Miami, FL from 1942 - 1947. I was born Nov 6, 1945 in Riverside Hospital in Miami, FL (this Hospital no longer exists). I was named Gloria Jean Ebanks. Her best girlfriends name was Glory Jean and I was supposed to have that name but mixup at vital satistics. Is there any connection - is she a family member? Please advise.
