Looking for my Dad, mostly to find out if I have any half sisters or brothers. John owned the Yellow taxis with Jimmy back in 1967 in Aberdeen, he left Aberdeen with Geraldine. Geraldine was from Manchester and had two kids possibly. John had a sister who was a teacher and she lived in peterculter.
John would be about 72-75 now

Wow, I have been searching for 30 years and found nothing.
Yet I was born in 1967 in Aberdeen, Scotland so they must have come home.
Thank you for your help, most appreciated.
I was told he moved to London after my birth, yes he was there when I was born but not sure when he left, all I know is he went to London with a lady called Geraldine.

6 credits for 192.com will cost you £9.95p +VAT and this should get you his address and phone number as well as the names of anyone else living at the address.

The reason the address is not on Genes or FMP is because it is a company thing...if you just google his name plus director check you get this ...could be out of date as he has retired, worth writing to see if anyone can pass on a message or letter

No need to purchase 192.com credits

Hello
Thank you very much Everyone that has added to this thread it has been a great help.
Hopefully now that I have more information, I might just find out if I do have any half sister or brothers out there. And it could even be a bonus if my Dad is still alive too.

Thank you, I appreciate all your help.
Kindest Regards to all of you
Michelle :-)
