A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Gauteng Who Chose To Be Featured
601. Cle64 : we know that his name is Gerhard. His biological mother is IRIS BETTY JOUBERT. Her mother forced her to have him adopted. Her mother was winifred alice joubert‚ we know that she worked at the Stella Nova Studio in Johannburg
. the owner of this studo help with the adoption in 1958.It was done through Johannesburg magiestrate court‚ He was born at Johannesburg algemeene hospitaal.
We only recently found out about his excitence‚ and would desperately love to make contact with our brother.
603. Shenika13 : Hi my name is Laurence Lehman. My mom Veronica Patterson Lehman that passed away few years ago never told me who is my real dad. I grew up in the south of Johannesburg in forest hill‚ born in south rand hospital and if the name veronica maybe ring a bell.....
604. Alcaraz : I was born in JHB but understand that my birth mother was from Kwa Zulu Natal. A surname Scallen has been found. I understand that the Catholic Church was involved. I as adopted by Derek and Maureen Allen from Petermaritburg.
606. DebbieAtkins : Im looking for my brother Wayne (name could be changed). Born at Elizabeth Ann’s Hospital in or near Krugersdorp. Biological mom Wendy Joy Atkins‚ daughter of Yvonne and Cecil Atkins. Address was krugersdorp North
607. MaryBethYoulton : I was born in the Marymount Hospital in Johannesburg. Our GP‚ who I believe‚ facilitated the adoption was Bobby de Kock. My birth name was Carol Mary Payne. My birth mother was Audrey Lena Payne. I believe that Johannesburg Child Welfare was also involved. My adopted family stayed in Craigall Park. I tried to find my birth mother but other than the record of the birth there is no record of her. My birth father was not mentioned at all.
609. Thulisile : My name is Thulisile Mabaso was born in 1994/11/19 i was raised by a foster parent her name was Josephine Zodwa Mbuli i don’t know my biological mother’s name
610. Djventer : i was born in pretoria as clive muller .my mothers name was Franscina Muller she was married to Dawid Muller.I was adopted by Martha and Daniel Venter
611. HarryO : Looking to try find a 1/2 brother that my mother only told us about just before she passed away.
Unfortunately I don’t have much to go on - He would have been born to Mary Maude Brotherton in the early 1950’s and was forcibly adopted out at birth - sort of thing that happened to single mothers in those days.
Not sure which hospital but assume it’s in the JHB area as they lived in Witchwood‚ Germiston.
If he wants to know about her will I gladly fill the gaps. Also mom never forgave herself for it and carried a lot of guilt throughout her life and I would like him to know that. As soon as she told us all the depression and sadness made a lot more sense.
I believe that the birth & adoption records are sealed so I will not be able to access them - is this correct?
Here’s hoping?
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.
