I think I have found my half sister who was sadly adopted in 1952 in Genes Reunited. She is 52 years old now and Im 55....BUT!... Someone else put her name in and I e.mailed this person and havent had a reply :-( Maybe they dont look in here now!! Maybe they have changed thier addy!! To get this close is very frustrating I am sooo sure its her.. Same year of birth, same place of birth, same TWO christian names also same spelling of surname. Any ideas where to go from here? Heres hoping... Geraldine.

I think there are some people on the Records Office board offering look-ups on last year's electoral roll CD's. That might be worth a try. Maz. XX

Geraldine....Allan Green has a thread on the Records Board doing look ups on the living. I remember, too, reading many wonderful posts about Gr member, Joan Allan, who, if memory serves me corretly, helped others looking for birth families.....Good luck! Judy
