Since birth the child has resided with the following persons and at the
following addresses: From birth, until November 11, 1996, with both parents
at 384 Lewisberry Road, New Cumberland, Pennsylvania; from November 11,
1996, until February, 1997, with mother at 2459 Rudy Road, Harrisburg,

at 2966 Wilson Parkway, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; from July, 1999, until the
present with mother at 330 South Washington Street, Apartment 7,
Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
The mother of the child is MORGAN L. JOHNSTON, who currently
resides at 330 South Washington Street, Apartment 7, Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania. She is not married.
The father of the child is WILLIAM FARLING, who currently resides at
216 Bridge Street, Apartment 4, New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. He is not
married.
4. The relationship of the Plaintiff to the child is that of mother. The

Pennsylvania, docketed to number 96-SU-5254-03 was withdrawn December

Plaintiff does not know of a person not a party to these proceedings who
has physical custody of the child or who claims to have custody or visitation
rights with respect to the child.
7. The best interest and permanent welfare of the child will be served by
confirming custody in Plaintiff because Plaintiff can better care for the child

terminated and the person who has physical custody of the child have been
named as parties to this action.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff requests the Court enter an Order confirming
