IMO, this has to be a mistake on the lawyer's part, an oversight of some sorts. I can't honestly believe the lawyer would be dumb enough to now suddenly claim that the grandmother was CAROLYN'S birth mother. She had a completely different name to begin with and the Parsons have been using the name Irene
Goodman from the start of the investigation.
We know Carolyn's maiden name from her birth mother and father was Fielding.
Here is the excerpt from Carolyn's search for her biological parents in 2002 / 2007:
http://boards.ancestry.com/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=520&p=topics.adoption.usa.adoptnc
So Erica's
maternal grandmother would have been Julie Anne Fielding, sounds NOTHING like Irene Goodman.
Now I know ACR stated back in thread 2
here that Carolyn found her birth parents through a Carole at Ancestry.com but I have been unable to find any proof of this so far. Do we know that Carolyn is actually in contact with Jill & Bill Fielding? Do we know that these two parents of hers are still alive? If they are, this myth that it was Erica's
maternal grandmother that took her could be debunked pretty quickly.

I am searching for my neice and two nephews that were born in North Carolina.
Caroline Anne Fielding born 10/05/1969, birth mother and father were Jill <Julie Anne> and Bill <George William> Fielding. Birth father was in the Marine Corps at time of first daughters birth. Stationed at Camp Lejeune North Carolina.
2nd child -- Kenneth Richard or Richard Kenneth Fielding, not sure of birth date but possibly 2 yrs or so after older sister. Third child--George William Fielding not sure if Jr. or not, no birth date
All three taken by state of North Carolina possibly around 1975 for child abuse.
Believe put up for adoption, or possibly taken to Florida to be with relatives.
I am your Aunt, I want to find you, You have relatives that love you and want to see you. Please contact

Also, just a side note but I also found this reference from the old MySpace. Don't have a year on these but interesting that Carolyn is listed as living in Jefferson, WV. Of all the locations I found for Carolyn, that's the first I found that city and state. Now, granted you can put any city and state even if you don't live there but just thought that was interesting, plus lists friends, one a Goodman, and one a Fielding.
