🇮🇩| THIS IS IT! My Mother's Birthplace! Did We Find My Family?

  • Sixty-five years ago, my mother was adopted from the "Juwana Putera" orphanage, and armed with adoption papers, we set out to trace the footsteps of our familial past. We visited the village where my grandparents were meant to reside, as we combed through the area in pursuit of any connection to the names etched in the adoption documents. The journey didn't end there; driven by a fervent desire to piece together the puzzle of my family's history, we visited two different departments, hoping to uncover additional documentation regarding the parents who had to part with my mother. Join me on this emotional rollercoaster as we navigate the complexities of ancestral discovery, facing challenges and uncovering secrets that may bridge the gap between my past and present. This video encapsulates the highs, lows, and profound moments encountered in my relentless pursuit of familial connection.
    For those who may know more about this particular adoption, this was the information we found on the adoption papers (all could be a different spelling):
    Father name: Darsoredjo/ Karsoregjo
    Mother: Sajem/ Mj. Sajem/Sayem
    Name of my mom before the adoption: Sami Lestari
    Place of Birth: Desa Ngamplak, Kartasura, Sukoharjo

    Thank You So Much!

    My advice: come again to the village, and try to find the oldest person there and all people of the same generation with your grandma. Usually, this will be more effective way for you to find somebody in the past rather than asking the village officials.

Maksud TS, dengan bawa foto mudanya ibu chai, setidaknya jika mbok sajem / sayem ini punya anak lain yang jadi saudara kandung ibunya chai, orang2 desa bisa lebih mudah mengidentifikasi dari sisi kemiripan wajah dengan saudara kandungnya yang mungkin dikenal orang2 kampung

    Javanese names don’t have surnames, so it’s difficult to trace. Indonesia is still struggling to make computerized administration, and many data were lost due to certain reasons. Thumbs up to your patience, and I wish you could find some members of your family. Amen.

    Besides the absence of surnames, I am sure you are also having a problem with the spelling system. Like in the past, the letter "J" was read "Y" so the name "Sajem" in the past could have been actually read "Sayem" and the younger generation may not realize it and consider it in the search...
    Welcome to Solo, I wished you could stay longer and find your birth family.. My best wishes for you and your lovely Mom.

    jika nama desa sudah ditemukan, kamu harus lebih detail, cek setiap inci desa tersebut. Cari sesepuh yang masih hidup, kunjungi pemakaman desa tersebut, cari juru kunci yg merawat kuburan. Data kependudukan yg kamu temukan itu bersifat administrasi, cari aspek sejarahnya, pada saat Orde Baru jika orang tersebut eks PKI dan organisasi sayapnya mereka dicatat tersendiri dan catatan itu masih ada di setiap desa selama Soeharto berkuasa.
