Beth,
Give him whatever info you may have. I just turned 50, am an adoptee and still searching. You sound like loving parents that have and continue to raise your son in a loving compassionate way. My folks did that and I have no regrets - but OMG - I want to know.
Seriously, think about it - how many people have kids, keep them and mistreat them? The child is stuck with emotional baggage. But adoptees? We basically have no baggage. I can't speak for all but when an adoptee makes the decision to search, no matter how much they candy-coat it.....there is always the fear of rejection or bad news.
As an adoptee - my suggestion is - give your son all the info and notes you have - when he is old enuf, he will be able to decide.
Good luck
