Richard W. Connelly, Sr. was born illegitimate, abandoned at a strict, regimented Catholic orphanage and adopted out at age six, primarily as a companion for the family’s older son. Richard rose from a lonely, intimidating childhood to come forward with a passionate desire to find the mother and family he longed for as a child, but never knew. In his autobiography, “Bloodline Detective,” he describes his years-long genealogical pursuit before there was the Internet, with nothing more than a first name to go on. That dedicated search led to reveal, at last, the shocking mystery of his roots.
