Termination of parental right and sealed records
You can't do notary work for people related to you through marriage or birth. People who are adopted at birth in all but six states have their original birth certificate sealed for 99 years and can only get it with a judges order for a rare medical condition ect. So it can not be proven that these people are related. With generation cryo and such there are lots of people who are related but not legally for the purposes of inheritance ect. They have sperm bank donor registries that have up to 200 live births recorded for a certain donor number. Clinics usually serve a 30 mile or so radius. This creates an ethical issue. Now they have embryo adoption which creates no legal records accessible to the public.
Can you notarize a will or other document for a person no longer related to you through adoption or termination of rights through egg sperm or embryo donation?

I believe you are "over thinking" this. My answer is yes to your question. if there is no relation any longer, and if they were your unknown sperm or egg donor, no one can prove that. lol
