Thaddeus was born to Lindsey and Tim Pierce from a 30-year-old embryo initially frozen by Linda Archerd in 1994 while seeking IVF treatment. This birth sets a new record for the oldest embryo to produce a child. Archerd, who is now 62, originally froze four embryos; one resulted in her daughter, who is now 30. Archerd explored embryo adoption after her divorce and found the Nightlight Christian Adoptions agency, which accepted her aging embryos for potential adoption in 2022.
