A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Myanmar (Burma) Who Chose To Be Featured
1. DavidBell01 : My half brother who was then called Brian Blake was adopted in Kolkata (then Calcutta), India, in approx 1947 by an Indian family. Our mother was Barbara Anne Blake. Brian was born, part Anglo,Indian part Japanese, in a Japanese internment camp in Maymyo, Myanmar (then Burma), in approx 1942-43. My mother’s brother in law Alex Fraser arranged the adoption.
2. NicolettaHartley : John Clement Dowling - adopted son
Birth name: Walter William McPhedran
Birth Mother: Pamela McPhedran
Adoptive mother: Gladys Margaret Dowling
Adoption date: 20.10.1953
Looking for siblings Sue or Nancy
3. Marguerite2 : I am trying to locate my mother-in-law’s only full biological sibling‚ whose birth name was Valerie. The information we have is very limited‚ but I’m hoping someone may recognise the circumstances or have suggestions on where to search.
My mother-in-law‚ Marguerite Ann‚ was born in Kalaw‚ Burma in 1943. Her parents were Marguerite Violet Collier (known as Violet) and George Nasse. They were not married.
Violet’s second daughter‚ Valerie‚ is believed to have been born around 1944 in Rangoon. We have been told that Valerie was adopted out at birth‚ and that the birth was not registered with Violet as the biological mother.
Family stories say that Violet gave the baby up for adoption after George refused to marry her. Reportedly she told him she would give the baby away if he would not marry her‚ and he replied that she should do what she felt she must.
The only memory my mother-in-law has of her sister is seeing her once as a small child at a cinema in Rangoon. Valerie was there with her adoptive parents‚ while my mother-in-law was with Violet. Violet pointed the child out and told her‚ “That’s your sister Valerie.”
The adoptive father was said to be a chemist‚ and his wife reportedly wore traditional Burmese clothing. Unfortunately we do not know their names‚ nor whether Valerie’s name was changed after adoption.
If anyone has suggestions for records‚ adoption information‚ or research avenues relating to Rangoon in the mid-1940s‚ I would be very grateful.
I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.
