347. CarlyFriars : My adopted name is Natasha and I was adopted at approximately 2 weeks old‚ in January 1980. I was adopted in Durban by Lorraine and Terence (a British couple). My birth name is Carly Friars. I am searching for my birth mother‚ Tracy Friars.
349. JakeDK : I have no knowledge other than a story from the adoption home‚ whom stated that my father had passed away in a car crash‚ so I was delivered to the home by his roommate

351. Deon298 : Hi‚ i have sibling that was born between 1982 and 1985‚ in R. K Khans hospital‚ situated in Chatsworth of KwaZulu-Natal natal‚ indian‚ im not sure if male or female.... My alias is Jarrod King. Mothers name_Pushparani Pillay
352. NetanyaMason : So looking for my half sister since I knew she existed…
My mother was young (born 01/09/1950) and social workers would not allow my mother to keep her baby (financially and age/ they didn’t think my mother and her mother (a single parent) could support a baby - the baby/ my sister would have been born in 1966 or 1967 after my mum spent time in a home for unwed mothers the baby girl would have been adopted from Addington Hospital in Natal (renamed to Kwazulu-Natal)‚ Durban South Africa.
My mom named the baby Yvette (although it’s unknown if the name would have been kept)
We received a letter in the post when I was in my teens.. the letter was angry and said that a private detective had been hired to find my mom and that we would never see her again (she had married her school professor and had two sons) - I chose not to give the letter to my mom…
If you are out there please make contact‚ I would imagine there are lots of negative stories you tell yourself to understand why you might have been given up for adoption - they are all wrong!! You were loved by mom from the moment she set eyes on you (loved by me too that’s why I’ve been searching for you for so long!!)
354. Sajid6 : I was born in Mccords hospital on the 18th of october 1983 as soon as i was born i was given away ‚ but my biological mum named me Sajid Sathar .From what i was told my my parents adopted me that my mum was still young and in school.
I would love to meet my biological parents .
355. HSLombard3316 : My father was adopted in Durban in 1947‚ his biological name was Gordon Genade and he had a sister called Jeanette Genade. He was adopted by an afrikaans family called Lombard.
357. Megan_J_C_Jones : I am searching for my paternal half-sibling‚ who I believe was born in or around 1954 in Cape Town‚ South Africa‚ and placed for adoption shortly after birth.
My father‚ David Dyfrig Jones‚ was born in Cape Town in 1934 to Welsh parents. He was studying at the University of Cape Town (UCT) around 1954‚ possibly undertaking teacher training‚ when he and his then-partner had a child who was subsequently placed for adoption. He would have been approximately 19 or 20 years old at the time.
Unfortunately‚ I don't know the child's birth name‚ the birth mother's name‚ the hospital where the child was born‚ or which adoption agency was involved.
I am David's daughter and currently live in Australia. I would dearly love to find my half-sibling‚ or any of their descendants‚ and potentially make contact if they would welcome it.
Any information that could help me trace this part of my family would be greatly appreciated.
