After 52 years I have found my cousin. I hunted the opal fields to Tasmania and then found his name on Genesreunited. It has taken 12 months to have full contact with him. His mum is the last of her generation still living and she will meet him in the new year after not seeing him since he was a baby. Hopefully I will meet him also. He lives in WA, his mum is in Qld and I'm in NSW. Keep hunting it can happen. Ruth
