Get ** Birth certificate
Diane,
I have searched everything I know to search and one thing you can do is get the B-moms Birth Certificate. I know you have the names of the maternal grand parents but with the names of SMITH its awesome at how many names you will find with the same names as theirs [I happen to know their names too from past work with you] If you get her birth certificate it will give info you don't have now. Like where her parents were born? Hopefully their DOB { I know he was 44 and she was 43} at that time of her birth.....and if you get the BC for the sons too they will surely be easier to find than the **....females marry.  With Common names its imperative to have Middle initials but most of all DOB. This will also give the maternal grandmas maiden name and all of that surely will change the dynamics of this search unless her name is JONES. What is your thoughts about this........you know her parents name so that will be no problem and you can get the BC's Just my opinion...... Blessings Mackie

Elaine Howard (Karpuk, Defries)
Birth Name: Jillian Howard
Christ Hospital Jersey City NJ September 30, 1950 Birthmothers name at birth Elaine Howard at adoption Elaine Karpuk ISO any birth family -------------- Believe I have a sister who was also adopted. She's a couple of years younger than I. Her adopted first name is Linda. Lived in or around Cresskill, Hackensack area of NJ. Her adoptive mother died around 1990-92. My adoptive family arranged for us to meet in late 1980's but her adoptive mother got wind of it and said 'she's not interested in any of that stuff'. (grrrr!) Her adoptive mother might have been friends with a 'Terry' who was a hairdresser or known my 'Aunt" named Anne MacDonald - who was blind. Our birth mother was friends with someone named Catracchia at one time. (can't remember her first name) At the time I was born she was married to 'The Duke' Catracchia who lived in Union or Jersey City.
