588. HeatherSchmutter : I am trying to locate a person my elderly aunt has always claimed to have given birth to.
My aunt has an intellectual disability therefore we are unable to provide a correct date of birth or even narrow down the year of this birth?
I have uploaded her DNA data to the MyHeritage site in hope of finding any information at all that could confirm the birth my aunt claims to have had.
She has told me that she heard the baby’s cry‚ asked what she had‚ had was told it was a girl. When she asked if she could hold her baby‚ she was told No. And her baby was removed from the room and she has never heard or seen her child again.
589. AliGrayson : Hi I was born in Crown Street Womens Hospital 22/4/1971.
I managed to get my Memorandum of An Adoption Order/Particulars of Child Prior to Adoption. So my biological mothers name on the certificate is Valerie Jean Hilder. No fathers name is listed. My given name was Patricia Valerie Hilder.
I have been trying to get any information I can, but have only received the information I have provided.
Any information or contact I am open to.
My name became Alison-Ann Louise Grayson after I was adopted.
591. Sumara : Hello my Birth name was Catherine or Katherine not sure of the spelling. I was born on the 27th May 1974 at 2:08pm at the Mater Hospital in Newcastle, N.S.W. I was told that my mother was a Nurse and my father was a Welder.
And my mother was 19yrs of age when she gave birth to me. My Given name is Sumara and I am now 45 yrs old.
It is now time to start searching for my birth mother as she would be in her 70’s. And I need to fill the missing piece of me to complete the puzzle of life and that feeling of not really being whole or knowing who I really am.
I look forward to hearing from either of you, and hoping that it isn’t to late or you feel the same.
Kind Regards
Sumara :)

My maternal family lived in the country. My maternal mother originally named me Peter. According to the story, I have 3 uncles. They were 19, 16 & 13 at the time I was born. The eldest one was working as a truck driver. I have no names for either maternal parents or a surname to go on as yet. Thanks for your time reading this and anything that it may lead to.
