Hi Jenn,
We are actually in Massillon, which is about a hour south of Cleveland. We have 2 bio children and are adopting a little girl from Guatemala. She will be 13 months old on the 30th of this month. We got out of pgn on December 27th and we are not so patiently waiting on our PINK. Hugs,

Hi, I'm Lynn from the Parma area. I'm adopting two baby girls from Guatemala. I just accepted their referrals in late January so I am trailing you by a lot. It looks like it will take a while for this Ohio forum to catch on . . . .

I wonder, is it illegal for birth families to come searching for their children on forums like these?
I'm Ashley, by the way, born and raised in Cleveland, but locally adopted. I'm just beginning my search for my birth family, and I hope that I won't be turned down if I visit Town Hall. I'm not quite 21 yet, which really means they can easily turn me away, but I've wanted to know who my family is for so long that I'm not going to give up.

Hi Ashley- I don't think it is illegal at all. The courts/vital statistics just won't share the information until a person is a certain age (different age in different states). Good luck with your search! Are your adoptive parents aware of your search? They may be able to help you get information from and agency or attorney if they used one. Good luck! Chris
