A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Free State Who Chose To Be Featured
1. Pilates : I was born in Bloemfontein South Africa. My biological mother’s name is Susanna van Jaarsveld. Adopted parents are Gene and Henry Gouws.
2. Ddk24161 : I want to find a child my mother gave up for adoption before my birth. My mothers name : Petronella Christina Susanna Viljoen. She gave birth to a daughter between 1954 - 1959. The daughter may have been named Annemarie or Marlize or a similar name. I think it was somewhere in the old Transvaal area but am not sure. You did trace her to Cape Town but she refused contact. I would love to meet you if you would like to meet me.
3. Ddk24161 : I am looking for my sister who was adopted before I was born. She would have been born between the years of 1953-1960‚ either in Cape Town‚ or the Transvaal. Our Mother’s maiden name was Petronella Christina Susana Viljoen. (Her last name became ’Crook’ after she Married my father Stanley Crook in 1961) Our mother was from the Transvaal and born in 1939‚ she fell pregnant at a very young age‚ and was unmarried at the time of pregnancy so she gave the child up for adoption. We do not have the same father‚ her fathers identity is un-known. I believe her name was something along the lines of Anne-Marie/Marlize/Marelize‚ but I am not certain. My sister had tried to reach out to our Mother once‚ many years ago‚ but our mother did not wish to connect with her at the time. I would love to connect with my sister and get the chance to possibly meet her one day. Please message me.
4. MarietL : I was adopted at birth‚ November 1972‚ in Bloemfontein in the Free State‚ South Africa. I recently found out who my birthmother was through Ancestry DNA. I also found two half-siblings. I believe I may have another half-sibling‚ born possibly in 1970 or 1971 in Bloemfontein. His name at birth was Johan van Heerden‚ with birthmother being Sarine van Heerden. Hope to possibly find him.
5. 106 : I am looking for my nephew who was born in Sept/Oct 1979 in Bloemfontein. My sister called him Jean Pierre, however this may have not been given to him. The adopted parents may have been the attending doctor at the hospital.
As my sister has passed away many years ago I don’t have any documentation on the adoption. If there is someone looking for his mother who match this profile, please get into contact.
6. JustAsking : Looking for possible family members of my grandfather who was adopted. His name at birth was John Buys and his birth mother was Isabella Margaretha/Magrieta Buys.
11. JoanGreen73 : I am looking for my birth mother.I was born on the 9th December 1973, in Welkom, SA. The name on my adoption certificate is JOAN GLORIA McCORMACK. Unfortunately my mother was only 16 and the name McCormack was not hers but the name of the man she was told to marry. (he lived in Durban)This marriage never happened and i was placed in a children’s home until I was 3. Can anyone please help me? Even if it seems like nothing, it may be the piece to the puzzle i’ve been looking for. :)
12. Kougom : I have been adopted in 1973 and my biological name was Nelius Herbst and it was changed to Frans Mattheus Christiaan Brewis. Trying to find information about my biological parents.
13. Neek49 : Searching for baby Bissell boy‚ born in Kroonstad hospital‚ Dr Smith was the physician
Mother’s name is Beatrice Bissell (Fischer)
He is my uncle‚ I think it was a private adoption. I was told that he became a dentist or doctor.
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.

I've been reunited with my brother that was placed for adoption in 1967! If he hadn't listed his date of birth
and his mother's name from his birth certificate on Adopted.com we never would have found him!
