Question:

How would I go about finding my biological grandparents?

My father was adopted in the 1950s. He apparently knew who his biological parents were, but to protect his adoptive parents, never persued them. He died before he could tell me anything about them. He was adopted in Kentucky, which has closed adoptions and the only thing Frankfurt can tell me without a court order is that he had siblings and his mother was Native American. How do I go about getting more information about my biological family? Any ideas would be great!!

You can register with the adoption registry, that would be the first step in letting someone know you are interested. Also, if your Father had Brothers or Sisters, you should interview them. Look through any old papers he may have handed down, and talk to your Mother if you can.
