A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Greater Manchester Who Chose To Be Featured
166. Emily_Richardson : I’m looking for my birth mother, a Katie Brown, parents names Joy and Peter Brown and a sister named Lucy Ann Brown, all from a County Durham. I don’t know where she is but I know she studied at Manchester University for a while but decided to leave. My fathers name was Leon (I think) if this helps. Please help me find my birth mother as I have so many questions! It’s my 18th birthday in December so I hope to be in touch with her by the end of this year.
169. MeganBanham88 : I am searching for my birth Grandmother Patricia Flaherty on behalf of my Dad Paul Banham (Birth name Martin Flaherty). He was born on 06/03/1959
All I know so far is that Patricia was 21 when she had him and she lived in Moss Side in Manchester at the time.
I went to the Catholic rescue society in Salford for a meeting in order to trace Patricia Flaherty on behalf of my Dad as he is living abroad so could not make the meeting himself.
They managed to get the adoption file from the court but there is no birth date for Patricia, only her age was available. There was also a mention of a Mr. Joe Nelson who could potentially be my dad’s paternal father but he was not put on the birth certificate.
I believe she went to a mother and baby home in Handforth, Cheshire on Sagar’s lane called Knowle House.
We would love to find out if she is still alive and whether she would have any desire to reunite. She has 3 granddaughters Megan 30, Ella, 25 and Ayva 16 plus 3 great grandsons aged 9, 7 and 5.
We would love to find her :-) x
