Welcome to Nearjah.com, California's Adoption Search Registry. I am here to help as best as I can. I have been designing web-sites online since 1995, and have been searching off and on for my birth-family since 1991. It only made sense to combine my web skills and my desire to search, so here we are. I am not a professional searcher but I have access to Microfilm of several California newspapers, including some dates prior to 1905. I will not charge for any of the searching that I do. If you have any questions or suggestions please let me know.
