[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Red Cross in Germany

[Helen Gillespie]

Hi all,

It is very possible that the German Red Cross might have been involved in adoptions - after the war years, but more recently, I'd suggest the person Google " adoption Germany".  There are a number of hits and most importantly there is an agency that registers both adoptees and birth parents.  Any of these links might prove more fruitful than the Red Cross.

IMHO
