A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
391. Gaylestuart : original name at birth was Nicolas
393. Jennellb : My mother gave birth to a baby girl while living in Australua in or around 1973. Due to circumstances she was unable to give her child the best in life. Sadly my mother passed away in 1998, but i have always known this left a huge hole in my mothers heart. Unfortunately I have been diagnosed with terminal cancer and i would like to find my sister before I go. I think she may have been adopted by a Chinese family.
394. Oconner1 : frank oconner is my grandfather his two adopted sons were Thomas and jim there sister judith stayed with them to what I know and was told. Im trying to find my grandmothers name out also. They were adopted out by the O`loughlin family. Tom and jim were orpans.
396. Ranga51 : looking for birth parents whom I have never met Born in Merewether NSW , My adoptive parents have passed now and would like to find out if I have any family connections out there. I have no other info only date and place of birth
397. Analise : My name is Analise. Im looking for my fathers birth parents. My father passed away in 2004 and i would like to find some family because i know they were important to him and was saddened through out his life not knowing them. I would like to fulfil this journey for him. Im not sure if his name was different before adoption but his name was Steven john Boc born on the 27th of july 1963. His adoptive parent names were Jan Boc and Margaret jean Boc. My mother once told me he was put up for adoption because the family already had 4-5 children and couldnt afford another child. However i dont know if that is true.
399. DuaneBurge : Not sure of the birth day ( around July or August) but had to enter something in the profile. I believe her name was Anthea Geraldine at birth. Maternity hospital in Sydney was closed many years ago.
400. NCRACKNELL : I was born Nathan Brown at Annandale (Queen Victoria Hospital for Women and Babies) in 1971, 8th March. My mothers name is Joan Brown and she was very young when she had me. I would like to meet her and say hello.
401. MelissaRed : Looking for my brother. My mum was 16 when she had a boy that was born in liverpool hospital nsw around 1985 to 1980. He was born in liverpool hospital nsw my mum named.him shannon and gave him a gold braclet for when he was born..he went to melbourne to live which she was told. My mum name is Liz bernardis and she is greek
402. CMH1978 : Seeking Brendan Holobowski (birth name) born at Deniliquin hospital 10.10.1970
Janis Knipe birth mother
Frank Holobowski birth father
Were married,now divorced
Two other siblings and myself
Brendan is the eldest, then a sister 41, myself 39, then our ‘baby’ brother, 33.
No agency I am aware of, my mum did stay with Brendan for up to 6 weeks in the hospital following his birth, not sure of the reasoning behind this.
We assume he was adopted by an Australian family, as far as we have been informed, his adoptive parents have not told him he is adopted. I have unsuccessfully tried to find Brendan in the past, incredibly frustrating and upsetting. He is our full brother, we have the same parents, my mother will never be complete until she sees him again, we won’t be until we meet him.
Our father is estranged from us, by choice of his own. He ignores all three of his children as well as three grandsons. He lives in the same town as my sister and her children and continues to verbally abuse her and my mum publicly at any time. We have tried to reach out to him many times, he suffers from depression and bipolar, is a gambling addict and was both physically and emotionally abusive for the entirety of our lives with him, especially to our Mum. He will not be involved in the search for Brendan.
403. Patty23 : Born in Wagga Wagga on the 17th April 1973 and adopted out. Only ever told that my birth mother was really young and nothing else was known
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.
