HERITAGE HOUSE-PTL
Lianne Cole Heptner
of birth) and I am in search of my son whom I adopted out in 1985
through the Tender Loving Care Adoption Agency in Fort Mill SC. I was
at the Heritage House home for unwed mothers at PTL from July 1984-Jan
1985.
I am hoping someone out there will read my post and know the family or
some pertnent information about the adoptions that took place from Jim
Bakker's minitries back then. Here is the information I know for sure:
My full name at time of delivery was Barbara Lianne Heptner. I
delivered in Rock hill ,SC at Piedmont Hospital on 1-4-1985 at 9:51am
on a Friday morning. I named the baby Kristopher Blake which he may
still have that name. Possible adopted last name of Mccall, McCally,
McCallum, McCuller, something along those lines. I am told by
Christian Family Services that I am VERY close in the last name.
Kristopher would now be 19 yeras old. His adoptive parents are named
Doug and Linda. They were foster parents before this adoption took
place and may still be. They had fostered 14 children prior to
adopting Kristopher. Doug was 28 in 1985 and Linda was 26. Doug has
dark brown hair and blue eyes and was 5'11" 155 lbs. Linda has blonde
hair and green eyes and was 5'4" and 125 lbs. Doug was an apprentice
pressman and probably is a journeyman pressman to date. Linda was a
cosmetologist but became a stay at home mom when they adopted their
first son Andy. In 1985 Andy just turned 5 and started school at a
private christian school in their area. Andy would now be around 24
years old and probably graduated from a private christian school
somewhere. Doug and Linda and family had sold a mobile home and land
and moved to an old farmhouse on 5 acres that had many animals and was
close to a lake. Their mailing address in 1985 was on a rural route
and may still be to date. Doug liked to fish and probably still does
with his sons. Doug and Linda are a very christian family and probably
involved in their church.
Please check with friends that may have worked at PTL in Fort Mill,
South Carolina at the time, old news articles for that area that may
have talked about where the babies mostly went at that time, family
living in the area, ANYTHING! No information is to small.
If anyone out there has any information please contact Lianne at
cre8...@yahoo.com. Thank you in advance and God Bless!
