until I see you and talk to you again. Placement in foster care should never have come to this kind of
hurt. but I have accepted that you needed a family and not the constant fighting for custody. once I
was well I was told the statue of limitations ran out on foster care and you were adopted and my
parental rights were terminated. I was devastated but so you know each year I have adopted someone

B-mother - Helen E. Meehan, born in 1913 in Oil City, PA (Venango CO.) Has lived in Erie, PA since
childhood. Never been married.
Found Helen six years ago. She is not anxious to share info., but I have found out that she gave up at
least six infants for adoption. There are other female infants in the records from Roselia, but I do not
know if they were born there. There were two males born in Cleveland, OH, and then discharged to St.
Joseph's Home in Erie, PA (1953 and 1954). There was at least one infant born in Lackawanna, NY in
1943. May be others born there also-do not know DOB for them.
