Sixty-five years ago, my mother was adopted from the "Juwana Putera" orphanage, and armed with adoption papers, we set out to trace the footsteps of our familial past. We visited the village where my grandparents were meant to reside, as we combed through the area in pursuit of any connection to the names etched in the adoption documents. The journey didn't end there; driven by a fervent desire to piece together the puzzle of my family's history, we visited two different departments, hoping to uncover additional documentation regarding the parents who had to part with my mother. Join me on this emotional rollercoaster as we navigate the complexities of ancestral discovery, facing challenges and uncovering secrets that may bridge the gap between my past and present. This video encapsulates the highs, lows, and profound moments encountered in my relentless pursuit of familial connection.
For those who may know more about this particular adoption, this was the information we found on the adoption papers (all could be a different spelling):
Father name: Darsoredjo/ Karsoregjo
Mother: Sajem/ Mj. Sajem/Sayem
Name of my mom before the adoption: Sami Lestari
Place of Birth: Desa Ngamplak, Kartasura, Sukoharjo
