Where can I find Adoption information?
My great grandmother, Blanche Evelyn Largent, was born out of wedlock in 1912 in Spokane, Washington. I have found that she was born Evelyn Miller Alread. Her mother (Mabel Carrie Miller) married a different man (James Russel Largent) a year after she was born. They lied about when they got married so that it would appear she was legitimate, and at some point that man adopted her and changed her name. My great grandma didnt know about the adoption until later on in life. I have found her bio-dad's name, J. Edwin Alread, but I can't find adoption records or any birth certificates... Any suggestions on where else to look? I'm stuck.
