I was born in St.Louis Missouri on October 6, 1949 and my birth name was Robert William Hahn. I have my original birth certificate that list my father as Marion Franklin Hahn and based on his age at the time of my birth, I believe he was born between Oct 7, 1926 to October 7, 1927. At the time of my birth, Marion Franklin Hahn worked as a lather for Guy Picardi construction company in St.Louis. My birth mothers name on my birth certificate is Betty Louella Hahn; nee Potter and she appears to have been born between October 7, 1928 and October 7, 1929. At the time of my birth, my birth parents lived at 1413 Ange Street, St. Louis, Missouri. I have found two biological brothers born as Gary Wayne Hahn and Michael Allen Hahn. Gary and Michael were placed in the St.Louis Christian childrens home for adoption and were adopted by the same family. My adoption was a private adoption by Robert L. and Christine E. Owen of St. Louis Missouri. Acco! rding to my original adoption papers, neither of my parents appeared in court and my birth mother was noted as also being known by the names Betty Frank or Betty Fritz. The last piece of information I have is that our birth mother gave birth to a girl while Gary and Michael were in the childrens home. No one knows her given name or date of birth. As you can see, I am fortunate to have my original birth certificate and adoption papers and to have located my two brothers. However, I am totally and completely at a dead end in finding my birth parents or sister. Guy Picardi construction company is long gone, the labor unions have no record of his name; howver, one gentlemen seemed to remember my birth father having a brother named Freddie or Fred. Both my and my brothers adoptive parents are deceased. ANYONE having any information or suggestions on where to go next would help bring closure and answers to medical problems being experienced by myself and one of my brothers. Thank you so very much for taking the time to read this rambling message. I can also be reached directly at rwowen1@msn.com, Bob Owen.....
