Hello, my husband and i have been looking for a few years now to find a young man who we think is called Mathew but was never confirmed. We were also told he lived in the Newbury area. Our son Nigel is now sadly deceased and we never knew wether he had a son or not although we had offered help it was never confirmed. |

Hi Pam, just a thought....assuming the fathers' surname is known and G/son "may" have been registered under that name |

Does the friend remember the name of the child’s mother? Is there a Swindon social media page you can post on? It might be best not to mention a child, just say you’re looking for anyone who knew your son. Respondents may hold a vital piece of information. |

Poster says he is called Matthew NOW. Suggests to me that he was adopted and had name changed. Could be mistaken of course |

Yes, that is true. On the other hand 'Matthew' was seen when he was aged about 4. Children are usually adopted away from birth family &, even if adopted by a subsequent partner, are less likely to have their first forename changed. |

Isn't it interesting how we read things differently? |

Gwyn in Kent , I came to the same conclusion and if year and area are correct only five births match that criteria have sent PM |

Would it be worth changing the heading on this post to Show Nigel's full name? That way, if his son googled his father's name, this thread may show up. |

'A postem added on Freebmd to Nigel's birth registration may also help should his son decide to look for his birth father's family.' |

Sorry Patchem. I did mean a postem to Nigel's birth (as he has passed away) not Matthew's. |
