What kind of information can be obtained? I live in NC do they have records for all states?

[pamrandy]

they have access to records of the people who stayed in those homes and yes they can tell you about ones in different states. if you have a family member that stayed on one of the homes you should call the number i put on my last post and see if it still exists. some of them are still there but the names have changed but they still have the old records. they will tell you if it exists and you go from there. i hope this helps. i am in the proccess now of trying to get records of my moms stay in one in florida. good luck in your search! let me know it goes plz.

I wrote to Minnesota and they wrote back that they did not maintain any records and they sounded that they didn't know what I was talking about. I was at FCH 65-66 Washington, DC

My bmom also stayed at the Flo Crittenton home in St. Pete, FL. She was there sometime in late 1966 as I was born in Jan of 1967. When was your bmom there?

[dblt13]

I am in search of any bmoms who may have stayed at the FCH in St. Petersburg, FL in late 1966. My bmom stayed there somewhere in that time. I do have my bmom's name, but am looking for someone who may have befriended her. I was able to locate her in 2000, but she died in January of 1985. Thank you.

No one will find records for FCH, DC; not in Minnesota, Maryland, or DC.

Hi Judi,

Do you know what the (stated) reason is for no records in these states? Were they all destroyed by fires, floods, etc.?

I am a reunited birthmom who was in a FCH in Mobile Ala in 1973 and now am trying to reunite with some of the women that was there at the same time. My reunion with my daughter is wonderful.
