My name is Richard Lee Grindstaff , I was adopted out of Anchorage, Alaska. My Birth Name is Brad Mosquito. My Mother's Maiden Name was Margaret Mosquito. I called into 1-800-U.S. Search, and found out how to get into touch with her. They sent me names of all of the Mosquito's in the United States. I started calling and found out about an Uncle Einer in West Bend, Washington. And I called an Aunt in Puyallup, Washington. Her name is Betty and George. My Mother's sister and her sister's Husband. I later found out that when I wrote to her a year later I found out when I wrote a letter to Betty and George that the letter was forwarded to a Cousin I have never heard about. She was wondering how I got her mother and father's address. She wrote me back within a few weeks after I had mailed it. She told me how difficult it was to write the letter she had written to me. She told me that Betty and George were brutally Murdered. But, I think it was a week after I had visited My ! Aunt and Uncle. I am so glad I had taken that trip to visit other relatives from my adopted Mother's side of the family. I was so looking forward to meeting everybody from my original birth Mother's side of the family. I did not get to meet me Uncle Einer Mosquito and the Cousin from Vancouver, Washington. The Cousin from Vancouver, WA. Is Susan Urban. I do not know her Husband's name. The only way we have communicated is by mail. She tells me she does not have a phone. So, I try to keep in touch with her every so often. My Uncle Einer is in his fifties. I met my Aunt Betty and Uncle George's kids. My other two cousin's Kathline and George Jr. I got to see some of my other family on video that my Aunt Betty and George took when they would go up there. I recently found out that I think my Grandmother has already passed away and my Grandfather is still living. My Birth mother's side of the family in anchorage, Alaska does not know about my Birth. My mother had to go away to have! my birth. Scared of knowing that the family would turn their backs on her back then. This is what I found out from my Aunt Betty. My Aunt Betty gave me a couple of pictures of My Birth Mother. My Aunt Betty, also told me that, She was going to California for tests and the tests started causing the seizures she was having. I'm not really sure how it goes. But, I also found out that she died of a Grand Mal seizure. My aunt Betty also told me that she traveled alot. My aunt Betty also told me that she does not know who my father is. She thinks that they met him once, but are not sure if they did meet my father at some kind of gathering. If it was him they know him as White Man. (Coming from their Native tongue). I'm really not sure how old my Grandfather is and I don't think he speaks any American Language. I think He, My Grandfather still speaks the Native Tongue. I think my Grandfather is from Igloo, Alaska. I'm not sure if it is him or if it was my Great Grandfather that was ! from Igloo. Maybe it was My Grandmother, or My Great Grandmother. I know my Great Grandfather was a reindeer herder. (My Aunt Betty told me that also). I really do not know what else to tell you in writting this. I've told everything that my Aunt has told me. But, My Birth Mother's Full Name: Alice Margaret Mosquito. Uncle's Name: Einer Mosquito. Two Cousins: Kathline and George Jr. Aunt and Uncle: Betty and George. Cousin: Suzzanne Urban.
