A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Eastern Cape Who Chose To Be Featured
181. Wongelihle : I would love to find my parents for closure
182. Carronwiddi : My father's biological family. Raie Ponter was his mother and he is registered as Cyril Herbert Ponter on his birth certificate. He was born on 5 March 1931 in Capetown
183. Carolynellen : Thomas emigrated to South Africa from UK with his aunt after his parents death. His aunt passed away shortly after arrival and he was sent to the Izili Catholic orphanage in King Williams Town‚ Eastern Cape‚ South Africa.
Date of birth is estimated as 1886 from his death certificate. He died in Aliwal North‚ Cape Province‚ South Africa on 18th September 1929 at the age of 44.
184. Kscriven2 : My great aunt found out after her mom died that she was actually adopted and her parents were not her biological parents. Her birth surname is her mom's maiden name so I assume one of her parents were related to her adopted mom
185. Postwar : Am looking for my half siblings (and/or descendants) who were adopted in either Durban or Port Elizabeth in the late 1940s or early 1950s.
My father was an engineer on war ships during WW11 and after the war worked for Caltex.
In later years‚ before he passed he intimated that he had a 'second family'.
Am eager to connect with any surviving half siblings or their children.
If any of this resonates with you and were adopted or are looking for your biological birth father/grandfather‚ please be in touch.

I was three when I was adopted in East London. It is said to believe I have a older sister. Her and I were both adopted by the same family.
My adoptive parents were Audrey and Kennith Mclean from East London. I was lead to believe that I was abandoned. I have recently completed a DNA test and the majority of my heritage is Viking.
