    Ask your adoptive parents.

    We need more information about what you HAVE done in order to help you.

    Hi, my adopted parents have passed away. I don't know where to start looking for information. I also would like to know their medical history for myself. Where do you think I should start.

    How long ago was your adoption?

    Generally, I tell people to start with their adoptive parents to get information on the adoption agency used, so that you can start there.

    I'm assuming that your adoption was pre-1990, and is completely closed.

    However--unless you have a legitimate medical NEED to know, unless your birthparents are ALSO searching for you, you are probably not going to be able to get much, if any, information.
