I started my research about 4 years ago and have been pretty successful so far.I was lucky to come from a well documented line of descendants,at least in part! My problems all started when I began to research my Father's family and found an obscure refrence to "Documents filed in the Dallas County Clerk's Office"on a grade school information card.I went to the CC and found there was a record of adoption on file there.It said that his parents,James Aaron Terry and Virgie T.Terry were man and wife and were relinquishing their parental rights to my father,listed as Wilburn Edward Terry, born 25 March 1922.The date was 25 March 1925,his third birthday.I began my search with the Terry's and found James and Virgle T.Terry on the 1920 Hopkins County Census.They listed their ages as 25 and 17,respectivly. James and Virgie born in Texas,Virgie's mother born in Missouri.Virgie is a comlete mystery.After the adoption she disappears.James is remarrying in 1926.No trace of Virgie.Help please.......
