Looking for my nephew DOB: 1973 who was adopted after the death of his mother in 1973. Suspect that there may have been a further adoption a few years later.
Steven was born in Dover, Kent and had 3 half brothers/sister. His half brothers/sister emigrated to Australia with their natural father some years after the death of Steven's mother.

How do you know his adopted surname?

Are you sure of the spelling of his surname because there's one that fits with a slightly different spelling on Facebook.

Thank you both for your suggestions. I had never thought to look on FB - he was there. So sad, he passed away last year, just a few months late with my search.

Trevor, Hi, I am Steven's cousin. I too am looking for Steven and vividly remember the night his mum died. The previous post suggests he has died, is that right? I I have sent a private message to you also with my email address. I look forward to hearing from you. Linda
