Stunned by the news, Michael discovered that this was a secret his entire family had kept from him. Two years later Michael began the search for his biological father. Wading through years of untruths and talking to people who were not forthcoming, Michael spent the next twenty-five years following clues and leads, all resulting in more questions and dead end roads. Finally, as with many adoptees, science caught up with the impossible and Michael was able to use a home DNA test to uncover the identity of his biological father. He quickly realized that the answer he had searched for came with many consequences. Finding his biological father was not the end of his journey, like he had hoped. Instead, he discovered that it was just the beginning. 600 10 $a Blair, Michael $c (Genealogist) $x Family. 650 0 $a Genealogists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Genetic genealogy $z United States 650 0 $a Family secrets $z United States. 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Family secrets. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01737651 650 7 $a Genealogists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939649 650 7 $a Genetic genealogy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01748669 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Blair, Amy 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210311010814.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8824094E823711EB8921E49D29ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
