Is there ANY way of tracking down the name of the biological father of a child placed for adoption...?
If all you know is the name of the biological mother? In Texas, is there a registry for parental rights terminations there a place to find parental rights terminations that isn't sealed? I'm not trying to find the child, just to find out if the parent gave up a child.
I'm not asking for a way to track down the child. I just want to know IF this specific person has given A child (any child) up for adoption. If it is legal, then I want to find it. I am not interested in doing something illegal to track this down, because that will not help anyone.

Yes.
But, aren't you the one always banging on about 'privacy' and how secrecy and sealed records in adoption are just the bees knees LOL

Could you IM me or send me a message with the specific details of the situation? So I can at least attempt to help you. There is a putative father registry but I do not know the history of it. I do not know how long they have been operating it. I am not sure if someone outside the industry can check it. I know that it is not public records. I know that that certain agencies like Gladney as late as 1989 were still telling mothers not to name the fathers.
