He was born approx.1935-39. Was in either marines or navy----something that had to do with a ship? He was ported out of Mobile, Ala. close to a year, about 1960. When he was young he had curly, blonde hair, blue eyes & between 5' 11 to 6' tall. Very nice looking man! He is my b/dad & to my knowledge he is'nt aware that I exist. He left Mobile & my b/mother he said to return home to marry a girlfriend there & to go into the ministry like his father. Possibly Church Of God faith. My /bmom had gotten pg. about the same time he left her & Mobile. So she never got the chance to tell him her state & in fact she was'nt aware yet either. My b/mom gave me up for adoption tha day I was born 2-26-61 in Ala. I just found her 2-15-99 & have had a wonderful reunion. She is a beautiful person & has told me all she can remember of him. I also have a picture of him that he'd given moma while they dating. All I have to go on is what he had told my b/moma. I'm not sure that he is in deed from Shiloh or even Tenn. I sure want to find him in hopes that he & I can get to know each other. I am not an angry, wan'ts get even kind of person. I just want to put the puzzles to my past together. I was raised without a father & it would be quite neat to have a dad now & for my children to have a grand-father. _____ PLEASE, is there anyone that can help me??? _______ Thank you, Dorothy Ebers P.S. : I now live in Oregon
