Ithaca, NY 1938 private adoption agency

Trying to locate information on an adoption that took place in 1938.

A few years back we contacted the state of NY to find out info about a friends father's biological parents. All they could tell him was that the parents were 38 the father a salesman the mother a housewife and they had 4 other children. They couldn't afford to feed another mouth so they gave him up to a private agency for adoption. He was born July 27, 1938 in Ithaca, NY.

Obviously, we would like to find out more about the family. Does anyone know where we can find more information out or try to unlock the records if the parents are deceased?

Thanks,
Jenina
