3. Leyanna : I want to find my uncle who was adopted in the late 1960s-early 1970s. I have children of my own now and would love to find out if he has 2nd cousins around his age. I would also just like to know how they are and would love to find out about their lives
4. Judithgoyen : Searching for a half-sister born somewhere in New Zealand‚ probably in 1968. The only thing I know is that she was born with Talipes but was otherwise healthy & was given up for adoption soon after birth‚ I think.
The birth mother was Suzanne Margaret Dixon‚ born in September‚ 1949. I believe she was from Wellington‚ New Zealand.
