Adoptee looking for birth parents

Classification: Query
I was born on December 29th, 1973. I was given up for adoption. From everything I have ever been told, I was born in Belmont , Mass at St. Margaret's Hospital.
I know that I was adopted through Catholic Charities of Boston and that I have a file with them. 13 years ago I asked them to provide me with all of the information that related to my birth parents that they were legally allowed to pass on to me. I was starting my own family and wanted to find out more about the medical side of me birth parents.
My given name at the time of my birth was Robert Travis (Last name UNKNOWN). I know that my mother was the allergic to codeine. Her grandmother had asthma and her grandfather was an alcoholic. She was the 3rd oldest of her siblings. My father was the oldest of seven kids. They met in high school through the music program.
She became pregnant during her junior year in school and delivered me during her senior year.
Although she did not attend school during her senior year, do to the social stigma of having a child out of wedlock in the '70's. She went and lived in a local Convent near Boston and mailed letters to her Aunt in California, who then mailed them back to the family in Massachusetts. For the family had told everyone that she had gone to live with her Aunt in California for a while.

So in short, I am looking for my birth parents. Have been for 13 years. Even if they are not looking for me, I am looking for them. I have to many questions floating in my head to not ask.
