Giada, have you tried putting your details on the National Adoption Register? If he is trying to find his birth family he might be on there.

Reggie, found this:

Ogwr Register Office
County Council Offices
Sunnyside
Brigdend
Mid Glamorgan
CF31 4AR

The Borough of Ogwr was one of six districts of Mid Glamorgan in Wales, which existed from 1974 to 1996.

It was formed under the Local Government Act 1972 from the urban districts of Bridgend, Maesteg, Ogmore and Garw and Porthcawl, along with Penybont Rural District from the administrative county of Glamorgan. In 1996 most of Ogwr became part of Bridgend County Borough, with the Vale of Glamorgan taking the communities of Wick, St Brides Major and Ewenny.

The district took its name from the local River Ogwr.

Reg'n district was Ogwr - as it wasn't introduced until 1974, can't 'place' it

Add yourselves to the national adoption contact register - 'John' may have also thought of doing that

Where was he born Gaida? Might be worth checking 'search trees' above, both for his name and those of his parents & grandparents, just in case.

Hi, we are Giada & Matt,
We are trying to trace our half brother John McCarron (birth name), he was born in April 1982, Wales, (your name has changed since adoption).
Please can anyone with information e-mail us, he has a half sister & brother + other members of the family that would love to meet him living in Italy.
Thank you <3
