A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Bay of Plenty Who Chose To Be Featured
1. 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.
If you have any information‚ please message me.
Thank you

My dad was born around 1949-1951 in New Zealand not sure where but that it was in the North Island, he was adopted to family friends of the birth mum. Don’t know the name of either of the birth parents but know that his biological father was a American soldier that returned to America.
