She finds her ten sisters after 40 years of searching

Barbara Lynn spent more than 40 years searching for her ten sisters, after their mother abandoned her in the middle of the harsh winter in 1954, and took her youngest child, who was 7 months old, according to Sky News. This is a moving research story published by the British newspaper "Daily Mail", documenting the journey of a sister separating from her sisters, and then finding them after about 40 years.

The 72-year-old said she was left with eight of her sisters for three days in their "cold" apartment in a popular St. Louis neighborhood in December 8 until neighbors discovered them. At the time, Barbara was only three years old. The Department of Social Services then sponsored them and distributed them to orphanages, while some of them fled for fear of staying in the orphanage.

The adoption family was then chosen by Barbara and one of her sisters, to move in with a new family. From an early age, Barbara began looking for the rest of her sisters, trying to contact different centers, and even communicating with television programs to no avail.

But it was her sisters who found her, as they were also looking for her. One of the sisters found a photo of Barbara in the old orphanage, in which she appeared with the adoptive family, with their names written on it. The search is over and the 11 sisters have been reunited.
