Puerto Rico - Adoptee born NYC Searching for Brother
I am searching for my half brother. Your mother was of PR decent, and she was born in San Juan. Her name was Altagracia Carrasquillo y Zayas. You were taken from her and given to a couple in NYC. The man who is likely your father was a NYC Transit Cop and your mother was a NYC teacher. They shortly moved you to Puerto Rico. We believe your name was either Benny or Jamiel. There is a bit of mixed info as some believe you were born in 1975 and others think you were born 1981/1982.
Reply back if anyone has any info. I too was adopted and just discovered and reunited with our family.
