Westporters Win Adoption Battle Over Child Name Change
In Westport a family adoption was approved after hearings in August 1955, finalizing the plan for two year old Deborah Dorothy Haines. The natural parents Joseph Hahn and Dorothy Hahn consented, noting no duress, while the Haines family led by Gertrude Haines sought to adopt and rename the child from Dorothy Hahn to Deborah Dorothy Haines. The court endorsed the adoption agreement dated October 26 1955 and directed the name change, leaving potential further action by the Haines to appeal within 14 days.
