Well I was adopted and found.I have been building this family tree to answer two questions that  I have had. Who am I and Where did I come from? My Birth mother's side explores Spanish and  Native American backgrounds, while my birth father's side explores English and more European  background. So I am in between.
 Also note that while I try to verify each entry, I will make mistakes. When and where I see there is a  question, I will note it. I am not proving in order to get into a society or club, but trying to prove  where I came from.

A little about my being adopted. It was made known from the beginning that I was adopted, so I  always knew. My adopted parents and the entire adopted family loved me very much and never made  me feel anything other than being a member of the family. So much so that they were always  supportive of me finding out my birth family. Since being found, I have learned that when the  birth family knows there is a child out there, there is a warm and happy reunion waiting. If  not,it will be slower. I cannot push the issue, I just have to be open and accepting.

I  have discussed with both the Adopted and Biological families, that I know who my Mom and Dad  were, (they have sadly passed, as well as my Biological Mom and Dad) and that this is not a  replacement family, rather an additional family.
