Consent necessary to adopt legitimate child. Consent not necessary to adopt abandoned child. Orphan child.

§ 224. A legitimate child cannot be adopted without the consent of its parents, if living; nor an illegitimate child without the consent of its mother, if living; except, that consent is not necessary from a father or mother deprived of civil rights, or adjudged guilty of adultery or eruelty, and for either cause divorced, or adjudged to be habitually intemperate in the use of intoxicants, or who has been judicially deprived of the custody of the child on account of cruelty or neglect.

Neither is consent of any parent necessary in case of any abandoned child. Any child deserted by its parents without provision for their identification, or relinquished by its parent or parents for the purpose of adoption expressed in writing signed and acknowledged by such parent or parents before an officer authorized to take acknowledgments, shall from the date of such act of desertion or of such relinquishment be deemed to be an abandoned child within the meaning of this section. Any child left in the care and custody of another by its parent or parents without any provision for its support, for the period of one year, may after such notice to the parent or parents residing within the state and to such other relatives of said child residing within the county as the court shall require, be determined by order of the juvenile court of the county in which said child was so left to be an abandoned child within the terms of this section. Any abandoned child within the meaning of this section or any child whose parent or parents have been judicially deprived of its custody on account of cruelty or neglect, maintained by or in the custody of any orphan asylum within this state, any charitable organization or society receiving state aid or receiving commitments from the juvenile court, may be adopted with the consent of the managers of such orphan asylum, charitable organization or society. Any orphan child for whose support no provision has been made by any person for a period of one year, but who has been maintained during said year by or in the custody of any orphan asylum within this state, any charitable organization or society receiving state aid or receiving commitments from the juvenile court, may be adopted with the consent of the managers of such orphan asylum, charitable organization or society.
