i would just like to thank this web site helping find my dad. i have been trying on and off for about 5 years to find my dad searching eltrol roll phone books just any records that may be able to help me not rely getting any were. its just not having had a dad ive allways wonderd who my dad was? i joined this web site done a search found about 31 people that were a close match. i sent off an email to each one and when a started to get replys back saying sorry no the details dont match again sorry thought i was gonna draw a blank again, but then after only two days after joining this web site i got an email form some who reconised the information i had put in the email and after a few more emails to each other i can now confirm that i have found my dad who i have never meet. im 31 so it must of been a bit of a shock for him as well having a son who is 31 having never meet im pleased i have found him it may take a bit of time for us both to get use to the idea of having a family member we have never meet, but i will take thing slowly and see were it goes thanks genes reunited
