A lot of children in the early 1900's and late 1800's were taken to
Vancouver Wa. and turned over to the Sister's of Charity for adoptation,
I know my father was, and he was born in Silver City Idaho, I am trying
to find out myself about those adoptation records or if any were even
kept at that time, I have old records that give me the info that he was
adopted and by who, but not the complete file.

	It would have been in either Umatilla County or Morrow County as
that is where she was living in 1917.  Someone on the list found her and
her husband with only one child in an Oregon State Census that I think
was on ancestry.com.  I am only assuming that she was put up for
adoption because my grandmother never told anyone about having this
oldest daughter or even that she had been married before my grandfather
came along.  Her entire family clammed up about the little girl and some
told a story that she was murdered by her father and that he was hanged
in Walla Walla State prison.  I have proved that this is not true.  So
my final thought is that the big secret was th at she was given up for
adoption and that is why I can find no record of her death or of a
burial or anything.  She just seemed to drop off the earth at the age of
about 3.

	>If I can segue into a question that I am hoping someone on the
list can help me with?  Does anyone know if there were any official
adoptions of children in the period of 1916 to about 1919?  I am looking
for a sister of my mother who was most likely put up for adoption when
her mother got divorced. Dale<

	Where?  There were adoptions (legal) at that time, but (a) not
everywhere, and (b) not always, especially if the child went to a
relative.
	
	Take a look at this: http://www.uoregon.edu/~adoption/index.html
	
	I suggest that if this was an Oregon placement, the people at
UofO should be able to help you, in terms of where to look for these
records.
	
	AND, by the way -- GO 'CATS! Beat the Huskys! Beat the Beavs!
Beat the Cougs! Beat the Ducks!
