[Mark Henry]

My BIL knew he was adopted and found his siblings through facebook. He's french Canadian, but was adopted by a well to do English family. He met his mom but she doesn't speak english and he doesn't speak french, he has close to 10 brothers and sisters, luckily most are bilingual. He was only given up because the family was poor with too many mouths to feed.
He has become good buddies with his one brother and now sees the family once a year.

My wife was adopted by her step dad, she never knew her real dad whom she calls "Sperm". She likely has a couple of siblings she doesn't know about.
We've always known the name and where he's from, but she doesn't care and has absolutely no interest in contact.
