Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me I'm new to all this. I'm 30years old and trying to find 1 sister who is 34 this year, and 2brothers, one who has turned 34 and the other one is 32years old. The hardest bit is they was adopted when they was young and they won't have any idea of me as me being younger than them. I don't know if there last names will have been changed or full name so now I'm at my wits end as have no family whatsoever and I would love to meet my full siblings, I know there names but they will have likely been changed. Craig Michael Lyons, Michael Daniel Lyons and alison Elizabeth Lyons
Thankyou so much for reading, take care Jessica x

Hi Jessica have you read the info at the top of the page?

For ref information about the Adoption contact register and how to add your name to it can be found at https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

Have you looked to see if anyone has added your mutual parent's name to their tree on here? or their own birth names?

Their names will not be the same as they were at birth.

You say you have no family - does that mean that both of your parents have died? And that neither of them had siblings?

Records show a birth of a boy younger than you.

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 12:26

Ok thanks so much Erika H. That's what I thought about the last names. Our dad has died but my mum is still alive. I don't speak to my mum but all I know is ther 3 siblings I'm looking for got adopted and I didn't and the 3 I am looking for are my full siblings

Jessica

The younger boy is my brother who didn't get adopted too! Us 2 stayed with my mum and my stepdad, that's all I know I'm so confused and hurt that I can't get to find these x

Someone named Ian seems to have you in his tree on here. Have you tried to make contact?

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 12:30

Hi, I've seen that yeah I've sent him a message just waiting on a reply

I doubt that Ian is closely connected, as he was born Australia.

Michael D is also registered as Leverington, as is another child born 1982, do you know if she is connected? Note she is registered under 2 surnames, you can see them on https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 13:34

Ok I will check now thankyou

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 13:39

Thankyou so much for that information. I've just checked and yeah he has been registered under Lyons and leverington for some reason didn't know till that till now

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 13:54

Wow that is weird as she has registered him under 2 different names

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it

Well usually that means that the parents weren't married but the father is named on birth certificates

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 14:06

My parents where married and our mum is only on our birth certificates no dad is mentioned

Rambling

Rambling Report 14 Jun 2019 14:11

Michael was born before the marriage, which was in the 3rd quarter, so is reg in both surnames.

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 14:13

Ok thankyou

Jessica please stick to this one thread, otherwise it risks people duplicating info, as we all look on all the boards really.

You need to register on the Adoption contact register, and also read the info there re using an intermediary.
