@Cheryl7305 From an obituary for Meade, he was raised by family members so there may not be formal adoption records. Text from the obituary: "Born in Allentown he was the son of the late Blanche (Beltz) Lerminaeux and grandson of the late Harry and Minnie Fillman, who raised him." ~The Morning Call, Allentown PA, 7 April 2002
Blanche is the daughter of Minerva Jane Strohl (GHV6-Z8R) and James Lincoln Beltz (LTBX-P48). James Beltz died in 1926 and Minerva (Minnie) married Harry E. Fillman in 1933. Perhaps Minnie was already caring for her grandson, Meade when she married Harry Fillman. Blanche would have been very young in 1930: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/187359506/blanche-v-lerminaux

If you happen to be trying to find out who his father was, you could try DNA analysis of Meade Fillman or his descendants.
