He was an inmate in the Municipal Hospital and Alms House in Hartford in the 1920 census with many others all wit : "mothers unknown". My mother Clara, was the only GUSBERG in CT. at that time and the child was probably hers but the CT. Vital Records refuses to release any info on this child suggesting to me that he was adopted and may be my half brother. I have written to everyone who I thought could help including Sen. Liberman to no avail. Can anyone help me? I am of advancing age and declining health so can't perform my own on-site research.
