Hello pet,
Never give up you will find what you need. I am now 67 and never had my hands on a computer until 2 years ago. Now I have traced my family to God knows when. Keep trying my love it will eventually all fit in.

Thank you for your interest and your story Michelle, and everyone else who has read and commented on my post.

Hello Madeline,
Good luck in your search, l would just like to say 4 years ago l lost my mum to lung cancer and since then lve been researching my family tree. My mum had a sister called edna who my mother never met because edna was born out of wedlock and she married a canadian and moved out to canada and started a family.
I had alot of help from researchers from genes that helped me track down edna's family and lve been in touch, its such a shame mum isnt here to see what lve done.
Best wishes and good luck in your search and never give up Michelle xxx

Pollypoppet: thanks for suggestion, have thought about that but aren't they more to do with missing persons? Mum says it was a private adoption - dont know if that makes things more difficult, but anyway, I have registered in obvious places (GRO/NORCAP) which presumably he would be directed to if he started to look for Mum. Might get in touch with SA anyway, thanks.

JBE: Have done what u suggested, and sent birthday request to a radio show. Fingers crossed!

Hi
What about the salvation army could they help ?

thanks JBE, I might just try that!

Hi PollyPoppet, have been in touch with SS dept.,but as it was a private adoption it would be too long-winded, and anyway, as I've registered with the Adoption Contact Register at GRO, I feel that is the most obvious place and where he would be directed to look if he ever decided to search for us.

Hi what about the social service deparment who dealt with the addoption cant they help you
it was me deleted sorry posted twice

Thank you for reply PollyPoppet, hadn't thought of that. I suppose The Times would be the obvious choice?
I have registered my details in the obvious places he would be directed to if he ever did look for us.
Anyway I just like to keep this nudged, and I'll update it on his bithday to dispose of all the deleted posts on this thread!
