TX TX - Tanya Michelle Williams, 1, Center, June 7, 1983

[Tyahsany]

درست میگی، تمام پروفایل تانیا مثل من بود و نامادری من تعریف کرده بود، سفید با موهای بلند و فرفری قهوه ای، مژه های بلند و چشمان قهوه ای عسلی، که الان قهوه ای است، تولد تانیا مثل من توسط پلیس ایران پیدا شدم.

هیچ اثری از خانواده ام نبود، وقتی مرا به پرورشگاه سپردند موهایم را تراشیدند
دارم فکر می کنم راهی برای ارسال DNA ام پیدا کنم

Your post on your profile got me curious as i do see a resemblance between your photo and Tanya's.
If you don't mind me asking, do you know under what circumstances you were found? The exact day and place? Or who found you... From there you can try searching newspapers from that era and find articles and particular events that could be related to your case. Track down the person who found you or people from the US who had connections to Iran... or human trafficking rings operating between the two countries...
I don't know if Tanya's DNA is available, but you could also try a DNA test.

JMO MOO

That photo is of me being two or three years old

On September 7, 1983, I was transferred to welfare in Shiraz by the Iranian police and I was a year and a half old. They said that this child was missing, but someone said that I was found on the railway in Ahvaz and sent to Shiraz. I was terrified and this horror has been with me for several years, I do not know what happened to me

I really want to see the picture of Tanya's parents, and find out if I look like them or not

@Tyahsany , I am going to tag @Laughing , who is a genealogist, and see if she can be of any help. I also do a bit of genealogy, but am not that good at it, lol. If she can't
help she might be able to tag someone else on this website.
You have come to the right place, this is a wonderful website, and the members are caring and helpful. JMO MOO

These are the only photos of Tanya's family i could find. Clipping from Longview News-Journal - Newspapers.com

The article doesn't state who the man in the photo is. And it's hard to tell who is who in the photos.

I'm not sure if i can post the link here but, Tanya's father died in 2004. I found some of his sisters and children on FB, but not Tanya's mother.
I don't know if it is ok to contact the family so, my advice is that you contact the agency in charge of Tanya's case, as @MadMcGoo previously said.

Well, I have zero experience with Iranian records. My Dad was there in the '70's on business.

Any idea how you came to be in Iran, @Tyahsany ?

jmho ymmv lrr

 

[Tyahsany]

خب من تجربه رکوردهای ایران صفر دارم. پدرم در دهه 70 برای تجارت آنجا بود.

آیا می دانید چگونه در ایران آمدید، @Tyahsany؟

jmho ymmv lrr

از لطف شما بسیار سپاسگزارم

من هیچ اطلاعی از گذشته ام ندارم، بانک ژنتیک ایران از کشورهای دیگر جداست و اجازه نمی دهند

I also found this: Texas Adoption Record #90877 – Find My Family

Apparently Oliver's other daughter believes Tanya was given for adoption?

I am also an adopted child and I was raised by an Iranian family from Shiraz

I tried to enhance the photos but i'm not good at it. Someone else here can help you with that. Maybe it's just me but, the boy in the photo does resemble you a lot actually.

I am a painter and I think if I see their picture, I will better understand whether they are my brothers' sisters or not, because I pay a lot of attention to people and I realize that all members of a family are similar.

My pleasure! Let us know what you think when you find Tanya's siblings. If you feel you may be related i would suggest you to take a DNA test. JMO, Just My Opinion.

ETA: I hope you find all your answers.

 

[Tyahsany]

باعث افتخار من! وقتی خواهر و برادرهای تانیا را پیدا کردید به ما بگویید چه فکر می کنید. اگر احساس می‌کنید ممکن است با هم مرتبط باشید، به شما پیشنهاد می‌کنم یک آزمایش DNA انجام دهید. JMO، J ust M y O pinion.

ایتا: امیدوارم همه پاسخ های خود را پیدا کنید.

خواهش می کنم من یکی را پیدا کردم که فکر می کنم برادر تانیا است و اتفاقاً نقاش است، اما جواب نمی دهند، شاید اشتباه باشد

Translates to : I'm sorry I found one that I think is Tanya's brother and she happens to be a painter, but the answer is not they may be wrong.

(Sorry, that looks like a bad translation. Perhaps someone here can find a more accurate translation).

I hope WS can be part of solving this very sad mystery.

I'm glad that you were able to connect. Please don't be discouraged if they think you might not be their missing sister. Sometimes news like this takes some time for the family to process. You will need to do a DNA test, and hopefully someone in the family will be willing to do one too.
