OMAGH, Northern Ireland (Reuters) - Catherine Droogan turns 40 this year. That's one of the few personal details she can be sure of.

Adopted at four weeks from a convent in eastern Ireland, Droogan doesn't know who her parents were or where she was born. She is not even certain who actually named her Catherine.
