Hi, I wonder if you can help me, I know you can cause you are all so amazing! :) My best friend is trying to track her birth father down for her wedding later this year and she cannot find him using the normal channels.

All we know is that his name is Philip Frederick Collier b. 25/6/1969 in Sunderland

I have found his birth certificate but have no other information about him.

Any help would be massively appreciated and reciprocated where I can help x x

Have you looked to see if anyone has him in their trees on here?

Only she has him on her own tree, there are two other people with him listed. One is a non replier who she has contacted before, the other is a member of her close family. :(

I tried 192.com and he's not listed there, but there is no death record for him so I know he's not dead, at least not in England...

What about his parents ..are they listed on the birth certificate? You may have more luck tracing them...sometimes you have to backwards and sideways to track the right person!

We have contact with his parents, he moved away from the area as he fell out with his brother and now we are trying to track him down. We're now trying to contact his old school friends to find out if any of them know where he is.

Thank you for you help x
