We have found my Father. I sent him a letter and he is coming to pick me up this Friday the 12th. I was very glad to be accepted. I thought he wouldn't wanna talk to me but he does. As it turns out he named his youngest daughter after me my middle name is Jolene and her middlie name is Jolene. He thought he was never gonna see or hear from me again and he named Destiny after me. He also has my name tatooed on his left shoulder. Thanks for the information anyway. I'm trying to help my friend Twana Hancock in Arkansas find her father. His name is either Donny or Donald Abernathy. He was last seen in Missorri some where that is all I know about him. I think he is Indian. If you could give me some info. on him I would appriciate it a lot. I knmow thats not much info. but thats all she has been told about him.

It is thought that Leroy Ames stayed in the area and may have worked at the Vetern's hospital in Buffalo, NY. Viola Wiltse's and her husband (do not know his first name) had two children, which he kept custody of when Viola moved out west. My deduction from all of this new information is that I may have a sister and two half siblings! Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
