If her adoptive mother said that then she may not be my niece I don't know. I thought a family friend adopted her . If that was the case the mother wiuld know the girls real mother's family. At any rate I am willing to take a DNA test if needed ever. I can send you pictures of our family too. If you want to see if there is a resemblence. I just don't kno w believe anything put on adoptive papers. Maybe even they change the birthdate? I don't I din't know. I will send you my email address if you like.
