A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
541. TCD19 : Born in Sydney. Either Crown St Women's Hospital or Liverpool Hospital. I don't know date of Birth as in day.
546. Jmcburd : My Father was born on the 16th of October 1949. I believe he was born somewhere in Sydney but not sure of the exact location. He passed away 10 years ago but I’ve been curious to learn more about that side of the family. He was adopted by Mary and William Keith McGavin (a New Zealand couple) and my Father grew up in England and Egypt. He later settled in New Zealand where he lived for the remainder of his life. Since he lived internationally for many years, it would’ve been hard for anyone to search for him. I hoping to make a connection with new family members out there.
549. Leggy12 : Mothers name was Anne fiddock
From Newcastle hospital
Eldest child given up for adoption due to wat was conceived. Has two brothers and a sister hasn’t met.
Looking for Kathryn
551. FELIXQ78 : My mother’s name is Mary Ellen Burke,I hold no grudge I realise the difficult situation she must have found herself in, a young girl in her teens and pregnant faced with the stigma of a society that is ignorant and intolerant, I forgave her years ago I am now sixty five so I’ve figured her to be around eighty so there’s good chance that she has passed on. That said any siblings would be the next obvious person who I’m seeking.
My profile pic is myself with my latest grandson Fionn
I also have another grandson , seven granddaughters and a great granddaughter
552. RuthJohn57 : My siblings bIrth mother’s last name is Carter and the birth father’s name thought to be Patterson. I believe my older sibling was born in Sydney or mid north coast NSW ‚ but most likely Sydney. Birth mother married in 1959 to another.
553. RuthJohn57 : Mother Ruth (nee) Carter
Father John Patterson or Patterson who worked with Oxley County Council 1956/1957
Very Likely born Sydney, slight chance mid north coast NSW. It’s likely if previous contact was attempted the mother would have declined for social reasons. Younger half siblings only just became aware of an older sibling and keen to find them. No pressure to meet if not wanting to but would at least like to know.
554. 134918 : Keranne your sister and half sister are trying to contact you through Ancestry. Reply for you have people who have been searching for a long time and now we are so close to finding you.
555. CarlyLouise : Looking for BEVERLEY MAY CROWE (born 1944 approx.)
Gave birth to Leanne May Crowe/Baby Crowe on 26 March 1964 at the Women’s Hospital, Crown Street, Sydney.
According to documents I have recovered, in 1964 she had:
> green eyes
> fair skin
> light brown, curly hair
> and was 5’9" (or 175cm for us metric people)
She was a typist.
Her father was in the army and her mother was a shop assistant.
She also had two brothers (one still at school in 1964 and the other a cadet administrator).
It was also mentioned in her paperwork that she was ’of Monaro Hostel, Cooma North’ in 1964.
Any information you have is greatly appreciated, even if it is just connecting me to someone you may know that lived in Cooma in that period.
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.
