A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
586. 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 :)
