A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Scotland Who Chose To Be Featured
1306. Josavrda : I am writing to formally request assistance in locating any records related to a potential birth and subsequent adoption of a child belonging to my biological mother‚ Andrewina Melrose (maiden name Cowan). I am seeking this information to determine if I have a half-sibling.
My mother‚ Andrewina Cowan‚ was born on September 6‚ 1935‚ in Edinburgh‚ Scotland. Her mother was Mary Cowan (Hush). Her address in December 1954 was 4 East Adam Street‚ Edinburgh.
I believe my mother‚ Andrewina Cowan married Albert Melrose (born June 24‚ 1931) on December 24‚ 1954‚ in the District of St Giles in Edinburgh‚ Scotland. They subsequently migrated to Australia on February 1‚ 1956. Albert Melrose is not my biological father.
I suspect that my mother‚ Andrewina Cowan and Albert Melrose may have had a child who was placed for adoption sometime between 1952 and 1956‚ either before or shortly after their migration.
Any information you can provide regarding a birth or adoption record for a child of Andrewina Cowan‚ potentially fathered by Albert Melrose‚ would be extremely helpful for my family research.
1308. CherylCarroll53 : I was born in arnpoir in Scotland. I have a sister who was born and adopted 2 years prior to me. My mother was called Jean McCinon Scougal. She was only 18 when she gave birth to me and unfortunately did not have the support to care for either me or my sister. She asked if we could be placed together which fortunately we were. I have had a great and loving upbringing however have always felt a peice of my jigsaw was missing. I would love to be reunited with my birth mother to make me feel complete. Thank you.

I was born at the Glasgow Childrens Hospital in Blythswood Glasgow Scotland and my adoption was registered on the 3rd December 1962. My adopted parents were John and Williamina Jackson from Bothwell Lanarkshire Scotland.

1318. WmAnderson : Looking to find out on when my Grandfather was adopted and to whom.
His name is William Nelson Anderson
DOB: 3rd. September 1900
Deceased: 1st. September 1986
He was born in Glasgow‚ Scotland.
He had 2 brothers and 3 sisters who were also adopted.
1319. Danieliyahu : My late mother gave a baby for adoption upon birth through the Church of Scotland adoption program in November 1965 to a family possibly from Fife. We believe the baby’s name might have been James. Our mother’s name at the time was Muriel Anne Fordham. He would be my older half brother and the younger half brother to my half sister Kim. We have always wondered about him and his mother never forgot him.
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.
