My mother was at Bethany Orpahnage in 1941. she was "adopted" from there by a Reverend & his wife. From my understanding "adoption" from this place meant that the "parents" would load the child into the auto & leave!! This is how my mom was adopted in 1941, and I was later "adopted" from the same place.(1972) I got lucky. My older step brother and his wife came for my sister & I. Lots of pain around this...Never have found my "blood" relations-THE PERRY HERMAN BREWER FAMILY-continue searching everyday. Bethany kept sketchy records if any. Good luck. email me for particulars if you like. Good luck, Pam Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
