I am looking for my daughter tiffany marie chaney,

last known address is in appomattox , virginia, she lives with her grandmother, to tell a little about what happened,i married her father at 15, we both were on drugs i went to treatment and signed my daughter over temporarily to her grandmother expecting to get her back well it never happened and i fought just to visit her so then i remarried and got my life straight and was going for custody the next thing i knew the grandma left texas and it took me 4 months to find out where they were , it was hopeless somehow she adopted her a few months later without my consent and i havent seen my baby girl since she was 5 years old. I found them and tried to call, but she (exmotherinlaw) had someone call me and threaten to have me arrested, so i hurtfully let it go.I think about her everyday, and i just had a baby girl and i thought that would help me through but it made me miss her more, well i love you tiff where ever you are and im sorry i didnt get clean then, but i have been clean now for 14 years in april and you have 3 brothers and a stepsister and a baby sister god bless to all who read this and thank you to anyone who can help

Congrats on your baby girl. It sounds like she is over the age of 18, and I am pretty good at finding people. I have quite a bit of experience in this as my father was a private investigator and I worked for him for awhile helping him locate peopl. With a little more information, I may be able to help you out. Information that would help would be her date and city of birth, possible alias (such as her grandmother’s last name). Her last known location and the date that it was last confirmed would also help. Her father’s name, and so forth. Has her father gotten clean? The only reason I ask this is because if she is able to be found by you, then she is able to be found by her father and this may not be the best thing for her.

On a side note, you stated that you have been clean for 14 years. I have some experience with the pattern of addiction and am just curious, do you attend meetings? Do you have continuing therapy? I’m not trying to make this about you, it’s just that I’m curious if you are serious enough about keeping yourself clean to be a decent influence on her.

I hope I can help you with this in anyway possible.

It’s a longshot, but I found some info that may help. Is she catholic? I did find someone (using the information given earlier) who is pursuing an education at a catholic school.

Also, if I find her, keep in mind that neither I nor you will be allowed to contact her legally without first contacting her legal guardian.

Hey i just myspace checked her and i found quite a few Tiffany Chaney’s in the virginia area if thats of some help to you?
If you just myspace search her name it will come up with all the people on myspace called Tiffany Chaney,and you can flick through and see if someone matches you girl!

Dont worry about talking to the grandmother, your daughter is old enough to make her own decisions about speaking with you or not. The grandmother obviously doesnt want you to have any contact wth your daughter so take one step in front of her. Try not to put any pressure on your daughter as this might scare her away. Good luck!!

Yep sure,well i just went to search on myspace and typed in Tiffany Chaney and it came up with 3 different pages of people. If you know the last or current school she’s at i could search her through that because thats probably a better search. Theres other networking websites such as: bebo.com,Friendster,hi5,facebook. Theres tons of them so i’d have to have a look around for ya.

17, Tiffany Chaney, Virginia…
Caucasion? African American? Any other info to go on that you can think of?

(mentioning her birthdate just made me feel really old by the way)

Just wanted to let you know that I haven’t given up on the search, but I haven’t had a lot of time to devote to it. I’m off this weekend and will see what I can find out.
