Can anyone help me please. I am assisting an adoptee who is living in Japan. She was living with nuns until she was given up for adoption at the age of 3. I assume she will have been baptised/christened. Can anyone help how to find this information? Joan

Well you'd need to contact the convent where she was living to see if they keep records, but if she was adopted she might have been baptised in a different name. nell
