A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within KwaZulu-Natal Who Chose To Be Featured
316. Simone1 : I am looking for three half-siblings given up for adoption at birth: one in about 1971 (boy)‚ the other in about 1974 (boy) and the other in the early 80’s (girl). The boys were born in either the former Transvaal or Natal (Addington Hospital). The girl was born in the Western Cape. My mother’s name was Ann Jagger - she is deceased. The father of both boys was a man named Charles Munro. The girl’s father was Italian.
318. GawieBotha : I’m searching for my biological mother‚ Cornelia Elizabeth Hayward. I was born on 25/03/1969 at Addington Hospital and named Ernest Hayward‚ adopted and name changed to Gabriel Botha by my adoptive parents. I am 90% sure my biological mother stayed in Ladysmith in Kwazulu Natal at the time.
319. HesomAI : Cotlands Babies’ Sanctuary sent application forms to Mrs Hesom in February 1956 and the abridged birth certificate entry no is 544/55 date stamp 5-8-1957.
321. Just2Knowme : I was born at Mothers Hospital‚ (which I was informed burnt down hence no records there) in Kwa Natal‚ South Africa on the 20th of February 1971‚ a baby girl with red hair. It was a Closed Adoption‚ hence I do not have much details‚ through Durban Child Welfare (I am trying to find my records).
My adopted mother provided me two different birth names at various times growing up‚ when enquiring what my real name was‚ hence not sure how reliable the information is. I have no information on my biological parents.
I was extremely sick the first year of life.
I have been told various stories about my birth mother‚ one story was she was on the grounds on the day I was handed over.
My adopted parents were from 2 different countries however resided in South Africa in order to adopt children.
I am one of 2 adopted children in the family. My brother (from different biological parents) was adopted prior to me.
324. Arlsmalt : My father was adopted by William Hugh Maltman. His birth mother was Thora Olive Clarence (born Melville) b: 1912 d:1972
I am looking for the birth records of Thora and ultimately who my father's father is? My paternal grandfather.
I am also wondering if Thora was adopted as she has a different name to her parents Donald D Reich and Freda Ethel Reich (nee Wall)
325. SandyPoultney4 : So my gran was adopted‚ her name is Sandy Poultney so her parents were the feinheurs and also adopted a son called Trevor Feinheur and a another daughter called Margot Feinheur
326. SuggestedWall6 : I am looking for a man named Kit Thornton‚ I am his biological Grandson‚ my mother Emma was adopted and he is her biological father. All I know about him is that he was white South African‚ he was adopted at birth and had my mom with a woman named Jane‚ who was from Rhodesia. His adoptive father was also adopted. He Moved to England in the early 1980’s and had a pub there‚ I think he went back to South Africa after him and Jane divorced. My moms adoptive parents were named David Darwood and Barbara.I am half black through my father so I understand if Kit would not want to meet or know me.
I don’t know when or what specific province he was born‚ all I know is he was born in South Africa.
330. MichelleSteyn1987 : My mother's name is Susanna Christina Kruger (Kruger was her maiden name at the time when she gave birth to my adopted brother)
My mother was forced by her parents to have my brother adopted because she was 15 years old at the time and they did not want to help her raise him
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.
