Hi Anne

If you haven't already done so, add your name to the Adoption Contact Register and hope that he has done the same

https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

Search all members trees on here in his and your birth name and contact any one who has listed them. Make sure that his birth name is on yours

Contact the SS who arranged the adoption. Ask if they will add a letter from you to his file. If he ever accesses it, he will be able to read it.

You probably meant he'd been adopted at towards the end of Jan 1971 ;-)

Even if you drop your paid subscription to this site, if you should change your email address in the future, make sure you also change the contact details on GR. That way if he comes looking for you in the future, he can send a personal message by clicking on your name....and you'll still be notified and be able to reply
