welll as she was adopted then that wont be her name now so its ok Think its best tho not to put her full date of birth but just the year

have you tried putting her name in search members trees to see if anyone has her listed .Its under the Search heading above the boards

Thanks Shirley I will start a new post with her name as the title. Yes I found one person with her name in their tree and messaged him but not yet received a reply

If your husband has not already done so, he might consider putting his details into the adoption contact register.

If his sister is searching for him and does the same their details will be matched.

Good luck. :-)

Thanks lavender. I have been nagging him to do that for months. Think he is writing the cheque today!
