Searching for More Information

Seek and You May Find: . . . In China, most children put up for adoption are abandoned. So Adele Hall, a searcher from San Antonio, Texas, uses her network in China to find police reports or "anything that might provide details of the abandonment." Happy endings aren't the rule: Hall's greatest success has been to connect adoptive parents with the person who first found their baby. In other countries, where mothers can be found, sometimes they can't or won't acknowledge parenthood.
