I’ve been research­ing fam­i­ly his­to­ry as my moth­er was adopt­ed but she now knows the names of both her bio­log­i­cal par­ents (my broth­er did a DNA test and con­nect­ed with some cousins, etc). I looked up the dad and he appears to have enlist­ed in 1943 (I have looked on the gov.usa site and saw his enlist­ment papers but can­not find any dis­charge dates.

It is a bit tricky in that if he served until the end of the war, he could­n’t be my mother’s bio­log­i­cal father. I am doing more research as to where the bio­log­i­cal moth­er was in 1945 (usu­al­ly East Coast USA but was mar­ried and sad­ly wid­owed in Sept/Oct 1944 in Wyoming/SD);

Thanks for any advice. If this is the wrong sub, please let me know.
