A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within British Columbia Who Chose To Be Featured
1561. Valhiggins : Deanna Lynn Minaker is my birth name.
1564. MichelleJoyce : Hi there‚ Looking for my brother whose name at birth was Lloyd John Joyce (born approximately 1982). I believe he would have been born in Victoria‚ BC‚ Canada‚ and his biological parents are Kathryn Joyce and Lorne Joyce. It's my understanding he may have lived in central B.C. upon adoption‚ but I am not entirely certain.
1565. AlanS61 : Looking for father have never had contact. Mother had very brief contact with less then 20 years ago.
Trying to help my bf reconnect with birthday relatives. Was given to orphanage in New westminster adopted from orphanage about 6 months old.
1566. Onamission1945 : My dad was adopted by his mother's sister and took last name Polson in Victoria BC.
Maternal side is Redpath‚ Pillar‚ Gracey‚ Sterrit
Have no idea who his dad is and would like to find my paternal relatives.
1567. BobbyBoy1986 : All I know is that they were calling me Bobby at the home I was adopted from‚ that my mom was most likely still very young 15+/-‚ and that she looked like the mother enough so that I called her mom when they came to do a visit. I am quite positive that my father and possibly mother both were from or moved to Saskatchewan shortly after or were from there originally. I was born in MSA hospital in Abbotsford but the home that adopted me out was in Matsqui which is literally across the bridge leaving mission bc
1568. SwampDonkey : Hello‚
I was born May 2 1967 in Armstrong BC and adopted by a young German couple from Vancouver
Well‚ I imagine you’re just as shocked reading this as I was believing I actually finally made this leap to reach out.
I’ve tried to do this a thousand times and always quit for some reason. Was it the right decision to do this? I don’t know‚ I suppose I’ll find out sooner or later either way and I’m ready to accept whatever comes back to me‚ or doesn’t come back to me‚
This just really hit me hard‚ right now.. realizing that I’m typing to the person that gave me life and the realization that there may not be a “ You” or a “ him”’ because simple math. I’m 58 and assuming you were in your teenage years and assuming you lived a healthy life you could be 73 - 80 ‚ but then there’s the chance I waited to long to do this.
Luck is one thing I was never blessed with but here’s hoping I didn’t miss my chance
!
Whatever you think is worth sharing or as much as you want to share. Anything that stands out about my family history‚ my nationality? Health? If you don’t want to pursue this I also understand and if that’s the case I apologize
I am basically looking to learn as much about my lineage as you are willing to share‚ both the good and the bad.
Conversing over email or eventually meeting would entirely be your decision and I would respect your wishes either way.
Hope all is well.
