A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Gauteng Who Chose To Be Featured
241. Neil1962 : Birth name John William Steyn born 16th September 1962.
Put up for adoption on the 28th February 1963 in the District of Oberholzer Gauteng Before A.J Strauss Commissioner of Child Welfare under number 563/63. My biological mother registered my birth in Johannesburg Entry no. 10923/62. I am not sure whether it took +- 5 months for me to be adopted or whether she kept me for this time before placing me up for adoption. Adopted Parents Desmond Rhodes Davis Identity 335/669290 and his wife Jane Elizabeth Davis Identity 335/651905
242. DavidRamsay : I am looking for a female who was adopted by my half brother and sister in law by the surname of Woodall. In 1982 my sister in law died and my brother remarried. His wife and him abused the child and social welfare took the child away from them. If it is not too traumatic I have photo’s of the child with my sister in law, who loved her to bits so I would like to hand over these few photo’s of a short span of her childhood. Her first name was Jaqui and she had black hair and bluish eyes. I don’t have to physically see her but if she is the genuine person then a third party can hand over the photo’s.
247. Carilize : I am searching for my maternal grandfather’s biological parents details for our genealogy.
His name is CHARLES DU PLESSIS, b 24-05-1935, he was named CHARLES LABUSCHAGNE before his adoption. He was adopted by ELLA SOPHIA DU PLESSIS from Riversdale in 1940.
Unfortunately it is all the information I could find.
I truly hope you can assist.
Kind Regards,
C Jooste
248. Maikewinkler04 : The only information I have is that his name is Barry Smith and he used to live in Harrismith, South Africa. The adoption agency doesn’t have any information concerning my birth father.
250. MadelynPetra : The parents that adopted my son , mother’s name is Lee-Anne and the Father’s name is Tony, I named my son Ashley and they said they are going to call him Aidan Ashley. He was born in Pretoria and the adoption took place through a place called Neo Birth. They said the family stays in Kwazulu Natal.
I really want to meet my son if he wants to meet me. I miss him every day,
My name is Madelyn
251. Mysisters : My name is Pamela Isabella Diedericks(Izaaks) Please help me tack down my son. He was adopted by a couple whose origins were in Britain. The Pretoria child and family care society was the agency that dealt with the adoption.
255. Wendy1974 : My mother gave up a son at birth for adoption. Her name is Beverley-Anne Rose Penton (nee Smith) - sadly she passed away in 2011. From the limited information I have I believe the birth was around 1970-1973, and it was either in Johannesburg or East London.
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.
