A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
766. Patnatharry : Looking for records or information relating to my grandfather’s adoption. His name was Maxwell James Dunn (unsure if this was his birth name or adopted name). DOB 14/08/1929 in NSW. Died 21/08/2001 in Cartwright, NSW. Lived in the Cartwright and Liverpool areas of NSW most of his life and worked in the transport and tram industry. I will not list spouse/children as they are still living. I’m looking for any info pertaining to Max’s birth, biological parents and adoptive parents, including potential siblings. Thank you.
767. Tshinta : Looking for my father’s biological family, he is australian aboriginal medium skin and his adoptive mother was Enid Matilda Reynolds. I am trying to find his biological family. The birth date on his birth certificate says 9 august 1965 Location: Sydney
And has his adoptive parents are named.
771. SallyCannan : I am searching for birth parents on behalf of my Father Robert who was adopted. He was born in the Newcastle NSW area and his Mother’s name was said to be Patricia. I have some additional information that I have found through Ancestry DNA.
772. SallyCannan : My father was born in Waratah Hospital, Newcastle, NSW. 1st October 1955 and was adopted out some time after that. I do not know any details of his biological Mother and Father, but I am hoping to find out some family history.
775. Lupton11 : I am seeking information about a family member who was adopted out. Mother (Diane‚ born 1967) gave birth 01/10/1986 to a boy. This was in New South Wales‚ Australia and possibly at Nepean Hospital‚ Kingswood.
If this fits your description‚ please shoot me a message with the information you have on your adoption and we can discuss further if the information matches.
776. DanielWindle : I believe my father was born Onslow King. He was known as Stanley Ivan Windle, but didn’t know who he was adopted by, if he was adopted. He lived with a number of families growing. We have a birth certificate saying his birth date was 21.09.1917, but he believed he was born in 1915. The Certificate names Mary Louisa McLaurin (family name King) as his mother, no father mentioned. A notation at the bottom of the certificate states Stanley Ivan Windle was previously registered as Onslow King.
777. Sharyn15 : My name is Sharyn
It was Deborah Leigh Butterworth and in looking for family information
Wendy May butterworth may be able to help me she was only just 16 when I was born in Newcastle unmarked mother’s hospital at
Merewether
If you want no face to face contact that’s ok it was a long time a go I understand
But I have 2 daughter’s and 7 grand children and medical history would be very helpful thinking you all Sharyn
779. Leepal : My sister was born at Hillcrest in Merewether to our mother Dorothy Gavenlock. Our grandmother was Rita Eileen Gavenlock formally Russell. My sisters birth mother information may be a mix of Dorothy or Rita’s name as they mixed mine up so they may have mixed hers up.

The birth would of been in Wollongong nsw or central coast nsw I was born in 1976 so not sure of year my brother was born in. my parents are Keith Simpson and Yvonne Parsons a perfect clue I was told my brother had to wear callipers on his legs are he was either born bow legged or had some sort of problems with his leg’s.
