There are one or two obvious things to try, but everything depends on them wanting to be found.
You could check these names on here (use 'search trees'). Friends Reunited and Facebook. If they are searching for family it is possible they have posted on these sites.

Next, contact NORCAP) for advice:

www.norcap.org.uk/

And you could register on the national adoption register - it's a government site, just google something like 'national adoption register contact' or copy & paste this!.
