As an adoptee, there’s a completely unique part of your life that other people don’t have: your birth family. But, if you aren’t in contact with your birth family or even know who they are, it can feel like an important part of you is missing.
Searching for your birth family can be an intense and rewarding process. You may even find biological siblings that you didn’t know existed.
However, there may also be situations where you know or suspect you have biological siblings, but have no idea how to find them. Perhaps your birth parents are not in the picture or they have passed away, and you have no other point of contact with other birth relatives. If this is the case, how do you start finding any potential biological siblings?
Here are a few tips to consider as you start this personal journey:
1. Contact your parents’ adoption agency.
If your parents worked with an adoption agency to bring you into their family, you should reach out to their adoption specialist or a similar adoption professional. In most cases, a prospective birth mother will have spoken with her counselor about her personal life, including any other children she may already have had. Even if you were adopted through a closed adoption, and your parents didn’t receive any information about your birth family, your specialist may have that information on file. Depending on the agency’s policies and your age, that information may be released to you to help you start your search.
2. Use search and adoption registries.
Many adoption registries exist today to help adoptees and their birth family reconnect. You can use a site like Adoption.com or Adopted.com to enter your personal information (including when and where you were born) to see if any of your biological siblings are also looking for you. Certain adoption agencies may also have their own search-and-reunion services that you can utilize.
3. Access your state adoption records.
Most states keep sealed adoption records on file after an adoption is finalized, and most also have processes through which adoptees and birth parents can open those files to receive non-identifying and identifying information. Research what policies your state records office has, and whether you will be able to obtain identifying information because of mutual consent laws. An adoption professional or an attorney may be able to help you through this process.
4. Search on social media.
Social media is an increasingly useful way for adoptees to find their biological siblings (and vice versa). A great number of people have social media accounts, and searching for a particular name through these platforms may quickly connect you with possible biological siblings.
Consider speaking with an adoption professional to determine the best way to search for siblings on social media and how to approach potential siblings through this medium.
5. Hire a private investigator.
If all else fails, you may consider hiring a private investigator who has the skills and know-how to successfully find long-lost biological siblings. There are particular private investigators that specialize in adoption reunions, and they may be able to get you the answers you need in a timely and affordable manner.
Before selecting an adoption private investigator to find your birth siblings, however, always do proper research into this process to make sure you understand it and its likeliness to succeed in your situation.

I am searching for a Birth Brother born June 8th 1958 in Mississippi. Probably Jackson Mississippi. I was adopted from Mississippi Children’s Hiome in 1956. My Birth Mother’s name was Kathleen Hale.

I am in a similar situation to a few other commentators. I have a missing brother. My mom had him when she was young after a rape. Supposedly, my grandmother made her give the baby up for adoption. All I know is the location he MAY have been born in (clayton county Georgia), a year range (1971 – 1981) and my mother’s name (Betty Hood Routh). Unfortunately, my mom and grandmom are both deceased now so, I can’t ask them anything. I just wish I could find him…

About 2 days before my son ( age 41) died, he told me that he and an girlfriend had a baby in 1998 and signed him away for adoption. The birth mother is also deceased. Noah Beck Howell was born at Kishwaukee Community Hospital. At the time Josh told me, he was so ill, he was unable to remember day/date the child was born. Both birth parents have died of liver disease. I am eager to find my grandchild for health reasons. He would be about 22 or 23 years old. I have been told by a caseworker that it was in 1998, but do not have any other clues, month, season, around any holiday, etc. Josh had told me that he went to the DeKalb County Health Department to sign adoption paperwork, and the name of the person that helped them with the paperwork out there. ( She is also deceased) In the small town we lived in, I can not believe that no one else knew. I have only been able to get bits and pieces of info. I promised my son before he passed that we would find him. I have done 23 and me dna, and applied to the state to open the adoption records. Any other help would be appreciated.

I am looking for a half brother born in May, 1944 in Col. Ohio. His birth name is JIMMIE BAXTER ESTEP. He was taken home from hospital by his birth father Warren Osborn to allow his mother to raise the child. Warren Osborn is on birth certificate as father. Mother listed is Bertha Estep. I did not find out about this until 2002 when my mother died. He may have been raised in Ohio. WARREN OSBORN is listed on birth certificate as being in military
At some point the baby may have been told the story, because in around 1980s, someone stopped at my brothers house and said he may be his brother that had been adopted! But not being aware of this , my brother said he didn’t think so ! Bertha Estep married a Blankenship and raised her later family in Col Ohio, she was from KENTUCKY.
I know it’s late and he may not be alive still, as we have already lost siblings.
We that are left would like to know him and / or his family !
Can you help us….

I’m 62 and looking for my sister. I only found out about her a few years ago. I have no name and not sure when she was born. Late 50’s -early 60’s. My mother had an affair and got pregnant. It wasn’t my father’s. She had it and gave it to the doctor who delivered it. My father said he signed the birth certificate. But, as luck would have it, the doctor office caught fire sometime later. The paperwork on this whole thing was inside. So, I was told. Let me know if this papers could be anywhere else. Like microfilm or something.

Hi, Darrell — This sounds like a complicated situation. Was your sister adopted through foster care? Sometimes, reunification plans fail and lead to a foster child being adopted by their foster parents. If this is the case, you might reach out to a local caseworker at Child Protective Services in your state. If the adoption has already been finalized, it cannot be reversed. Your best option is to ask your sister’s family for an open adoption relationship to maintain contact with her in the years to come. We can’t provide any personalized advice for your situation, but you can always contact a local adoption attorney to learn more about the legal process of adoption in your state. Good luck!

Hi, Amira-
If you were adopted internationally, you can try to contact the agency you were adopted through but we’re sorry to say that most non-U.S. agencies have little to no information about the birth families.
If you were adopted domestically (within the U.S.) you can reach out to your adoption agency to see if they can release contact information for your birth parents. Finding birth siblings is easier if you’re able to access your original birth certificate, but your ability to do this will depend on the state you live in. (More information on that process here: https://www.americanadoptions.com/blog/birth-certificates-and-adoptees/)
Best of luck in your search!

We are going to drive across country to meet the ones we found in a month and I would like to find them before we go as well. Any ideas where to start with these? Debi in Naples

I am looking for my older sibling. He/She would be approx 10 years older than me. I am 39 years old, they would be 49-55 years of age. This is a half sibling. My father is the linking parent, this is not my mother’s child. A few days before my parents married, on April Fools Day, a lady told my father she was pregnant with his child. Everyone thought it was a April Fools Joke since this woman had BEEN trying to get in between my parents for some time. Come to find out, she wasn’t lying. I was told that the half sibling exists about 3 years ago when my father passed away… I’ve been searching ever since. I need help… I’ve got no clue where to look or who can help or how they could help.
Hey! Im looking for my half brother. His name is Justin Ledesma born 2004 in New Jersey. My dad doesn’t like talking about anything to me and would love to just meet him and have a conversation with him. I have no idea where to start so if anyone could help it would be great.

Hello,
I’m looking for my older brother his name at birth was Ian Sebastian Luevano birthday July 5th (him and our mother have the same birthday). I do not know if his name was changed or not. I don’t know the exact year he was adopted but he was more than a 1 year old at the time. He was adopted due to my parents drug addiction at the time. My sisters were able to met him and spend some time with him before he was adopted and i was not born yet. I want to find him, meet him, and bring our siblings together. I don’t know much or if this is a good idea or not but it worth a shot to finally meet.
I would very much appreciate any help.

My mom said that she gave birth to a child in the beginning of 1975 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The nuns from Mother of Divine Grace school took the baby and laced it for adoption. My mother has recently passed away and I would really like to find my sibling.
I’m looking for my twin sisters who got adopted by a different family in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Our biological mothers name was Hallie Vanessa Fowler. The twins are about 16 and will turn 17 in August. They were adopted when they were about 2 i think. Me and my brother got adopted by our aunt. Our mother passed away in 2006, about the time they were adopted. Our dad passed two years ago. I know their middle name but i’m not sure if the adoptive parents changed or not.. I haven’t seen them since they were about 2 .. I would do anything to reunite with them before we are older.

Trying to find my wife’s birth mother .
My wife name is estrella alverio castro , she has been a nurse for the past 20 years she is from galicia Spain from a town called la coruna. There she was raised by francisco castro and socorro pena castro. Both from spain. They have had her since birth . And raised her as their own .they lived in Uruguay when they got my wife. My wife is 53 years old. And came to New York at 18 . Her father passed in july of 2003 . And she took care of her mom till her passing on Jan of 2019. In 2004 she suffered a liver failure and had to have a transplant. In which she has been fine for the passed 17 years!!… when her mother was sick she found out she was adopted. Being a only child and with little to go on . She has been trying to find her birth mother . Just to see if she has siblings or any health issues in which she doesnt know. I would gladly be appreciated if you can help her find some closure . She often wonders if she will ever find her. I’m sure it weighs on her even though she tries to show a brave face …
Thank you for time . Hole to hear from you soon .
Sincerely,
George alverio

I was born in Illinois June 26, 1975 as Tomas Hernandez. My adoption was finalized in Feb of 1976. My mother was underage and I believe the adoption was facilitated through Catholic Charities. Supposedly, my mother was sent to Illinois from Puerto Rico hide the pregnancy.
