My father (now deceased) was taken into care by a family (shortly after birth) and was formally adopted during WW2. I have been contacted by my cousin (?) and we are both trying to explore our family links. I am therefore seeking information to confirm the parents of my father.
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.
