This list is for the parents and children who are adopting, have adopted, or have been adopted from
Jilin Province in The People's Republic of China.
It is also a forum to be used for the benefit of our children, as their lives are intricately woven into
our own, as well as the children who are left behind.
Jilin
"Ji" = "lucky" ... "Lin" = "forest"
Manchu words Jilin Wula means along the river of Song Hua Jiang
(Sungari). The Manchu people called this province Jilin and
left off the word Wula (along).
Jilin thus means "lucky forest."
