Does anyone have any other ideas I could try? I posted several times on this site and I get no replies at all....I dont know who to ask or what to do....I know Im getting close to just having to forget about it, but Ive got 6+ aunts and uncles and a ton of cousins(i hope) that I know nothing about. Would also like to know if my paternal grandparents are even around anymore. Ill try again, one more time....if anyone can give me any help it would be great. My father, Karl Zwilling(not birth name) was adopted by John(US Army at the time) & Irene Zwilling in 1956 in Stuttgart(sp) 6 days after my father was born. Youngest of 6 or 7. Mother was young from what I remember being told. He(my dad) apparently found a biological brother 20+ years ago in Seattle, Washington who at the time was working for the Seattle Police Department, not sure if he is still there...and I do not know his name. John d. 1985, Karl d. 1997 and Irene d.2003 I did find some family on here several years back on my dads & Irenes side, even though they are not biological, it was amazing to find some extended family....so again, Ive been trying to figure out what to do for over 10 years and it hurts....I just need a starting point, some kind of a sign that I have some family out there....thanks for taking the time to read this
