Searching for birth parents in Venezuela
My name is Natalia Harvey and I am searching for the birth parents on behalf of my good friend John David Turner.
He has many records and we need your help finding his birth parents.
He was born in Maracay, Venezuela February 19, 1957
From a couple of documents we were able to determine his mother’s name was Rosa Dominguez Ferreira, which states that she was 17 years old, single, and having this illegitimate child. Through this were able to deduce at this point that from her age in 1957 she was born around 1940, so she would be about 81 years old by now if she is still living.
From the birth certificate we were able to see his fathers name was Josè but the last name we are unable to decipher due to the handwriting. I think it may say Martinez with a fancy cursive “M”, but we are unsure.
His adoptive father’s name was John Milton Turner who was in the US Airforce military in Venezuela at the time of adoption.
His adoptive mother’s name was Barabara Beatrice Turner (Maiden name Williams). They were both from Georgia, USA.
Both his adoptive parents have passed.
He is hoping to find out more information about his birth parents.
I am asking for your help. He is looking for any information on his birth parents, even photographs if possible. He may also have relative or siblings that he could possibly get in contact with.
If there is no way you are able to help us, would you please point us in the right direction. We are so greatful for you taking the time to read this letter and so very hopeful.
We thank you for reading this letter and for your consideration.
With all sincerity,
Natalia Harvey

From the birth certificate it definitely says that his father's name is José Martinez. In addition to what Brett provided, I would suggest that John take DNA tests from several different suppliers, Ancestry.com, MyHertiage, 23andMe, etc. They routinely go on sale for $59 during the year. You may not find his mother or father, but you may find some siblings or cousins who might be able to assist you in your search. Ancestry has the largest database and is currently on sale for $59. Testing with more companies increases your chances of finding a key relative. Good luck.
