How do I find an adopted sister who was born to my mother before she married my father? My 94 year old aunt has just told me that my mother had a 'beautiful baby girl' at the beginning of the war. My aunt has only given me the information that she saw the birth certificate with the baby's name PATRICIA on it - my mother's maiden name was Adamson. Where do I go from here? |

Hi Kathryn If you type Patricia Adamson into the Quicksearch box on GenesConnected it comes up with three possibilities. This could be a starting point? Best of luck with your search - Pat |

If your aunt could tell you which area of the country the baby was born, or narrow down the years it would help. It would seem that she may actually have seen the baby. Have a gentle chat to find out more, then you could at least obtain a birth certificate to work from. A message on 'Trying to find' would then be possible. Good luck. |

Log on via Google, to NORCAP, a brilliant organisation near Oxford that helps all sides of the adoption triangle. They will point you in all the right directions, but you do have to join up (well worth the £15 or so). (I'm not connected to them other than they've helped me in the past and I'm still a member). I too, have a half sister out there somewhere, same father, different mothers. She doesn't know I exist. I was the adopted one. All the best - do let us know how you get on. Mary Devon |

If you are willing to part with a lot of cash norcap might be your answer,Family records centre in London have reg of all adoptees not to who . but their birth name and date of adoption,and also gives county in which the adoption took place,but not adopted name, |

Lookupuk(.)com and Missing-you(.)net are both places to leave messages. I had luck with the first. Also friends reunited - trying to find Patricia * Also see if you can find her original birth in the BDM's or if someone has a credit in 1837's could do it for you perhaps. Then perhaps if you have her dob and original name you could try Social Services/Adoption Agency to leave message. She may have already tried to find her mother without success and if you contact them they may give info or pass message on. Good Luck |
