Updated info for this post. I know adoption went through Salvation Army in 51/52 Was handled by a Col. Stevenson that I know is deceased at this time and has been for years. She was born in Hot Springs Arkansas and I have a photo of her and father.

Spelling may be Fairry rather than Fairy. They also spent time in Galveston Tx.

[Eldemila]

That's an unusual name not to be able to find. Do you have any other information for anyone who wants to help, like dates of birth for both parents, where Floy was born, were they married?
