Later Mrs. Foster married a Cass Cooper and they moved away from Southern Illinois. The little girl was left to the Childrens Home and Aid Society orphanage, and eventually she was adopted in Northern Illinois by John and Martha Miller in the year 1911. At the time of the adoption they called to abandoned girl "Marie". I'm trying to find out any information at all about my mother (Marie) that I can. Any information would be appreciated!!!
