About Us
It is with mixed emotions that I am announcing that I have retired as a Licensed Private Investigator.
Searching and reuniting the thousands of adoptees, birth parents, and siblings, helping people to find answers to their questions, and unlocking the deep and not so deep secrets in their lives has been both heartwarming and heartbreaking. And I loved every moment.
Some might say that my clients were either a blessing or a lesson, but I say all my clients were both a blessing and a lesson. We have shared laughter, tears, prayers, joy, sorrows, and dreams. God brought each and every client to Searching to Reunite and He provided me with the words, tools, wisdom, and skills for every case brought to me. I have seen God's Hand in each and every case. I know He brought me so many people who were instrumental in growing Searching to Reunite, LLC. I have been more than blessed with encouragement, support, contacts, connections, friendships, and gifts.
I am not completely leaving Searching to Reunite, LLC. I am available for consultations and speaking engagements for your company, church, conference, and/or support groups. Please contact me for scheduling.
Thank you for the over 31 years you trusted and invited me into your lives.
May God be with each and every one of you.
Peace,
Kenna Peterson Knotts

Our Approach
A word of caution…beware of engaging organizations or individuals who offer to conduct “free searches” under the guise of performing “genealogical research” and/or those who ask only for a “donation” for their efforts. Under Ohio law, only a licensed Private Investigator is allowed to conduct a “search” (for monetary gain) for someone other than their own family member(s). See O.R.C. 4749.01-B. and 4749.01-H.9. As used in division (H)(9) of this section, “genealogical research” means the determination of the origins and descent of families, including the identification of individuals, their family relationships, and the biographical details of their lives. “Genealogical research” does not include furnishing or hire services for locating missing persons or natural or birth parents or children.
