Adopted.com is proud to offer a country-wide Adoption Reunion Registry for Australia where you
can meet by mutual consent whether you've accessed your adoption records or not. From Perth
to Brisbane and everywhere in between, if both parties want to meet then you can find each
other on Adopted.com!
In New South Wales adult adoptees (18 and over) are able to access identifying information from
the government, unless a veto preventing access has been submitted.
A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
1186. Warner74 : Wayne Walters‚ father’s name Kristle was born at Newcastle western suburbs hospital in 1989 and I held her that was it and she was taken away it’s been a very long time since. And I’m hoping this is possible You have 3 brothers you are the only daughter I had.
1187. JRFW : I was born in Sydney Australia my adopted mother told me my biological parents were from New Zealand. I had a name of my biological parents which I don’t have anymore. My ex wife was from New Zealand and she traced them to the Picton area South Island New Zealand
1189. Beratull : Born in Hornsby NSW (probably Hornsby Hospital where all of the adoptions took place back then).
Mother’s name: Judith Fairfax Johnson
Transported to adoptive parents in Brisbane Qld at about 1 month old.
1190. MissBoots80 : My grandfather Keith William Bootle (born 31 Aug 1928 in QLD) conceived a child with his girlfriend Cynthia (surname unknown) when he was 14-15 years old. Sadly his girlfriend’s family sent her away when she was pregnant‚ and the baby was put up for adoption.
I was only told this revelation recently‚ and my father only knew of a brother‚ not a half sister.
We would dearly love to get in touch with my aunt‚ as my grandfather has now passed away‚ as has my grandmother‚ hence the ’secret’ coming out.
I have all the identification needed to apply‚ so please advise the best process for doing this.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards‚
Tonia Barton
1191. Shell2024 : Hi Looking for my Genetic Grandmother Barbara Dawn Higgins. She was 15 in 1952 when she had my mum and gave her for adoption. Love to connect with her or family members that are still living.
I have information that she may have moved north to Maryborough north queenslands.
1196. Joanne-lisa1968 : I am looking for my biological father‚ his name is‚ to my knowledge‚ Gordon Batten. My birth mother was 14/15 at the time of my birth and her name is Elizabeth Bryden (Black). I have met her but would love to meet him‚ do not want to interrupt lives‚ but very curious as to my roots.
1197. Jachcogo : Hi‚ I’m looking for an older sister (my only full sibling) who was adopted due to my mum being very young. I’m not even sure it was an official adoption. I believe born in NSW and might have grown up in NSW or QLD. Likely born within 1980-82 (give or take a year or two). I have very limited information. I’ve done DNA testing on ancestry.com and one of my half siblings have done it on 23andme as we are hoping to get a match.
1200. KenMontgomery : Looking for my adopted son born in NSW 1973 to 75.
Birth mother was from Adelong NSW.
I was from Wagga.
We both were living in Canberra at the time.
Cheers
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.

54 years it took us until we found each other. We did a DNA test to confirm! Perfect match. We spent two weeks together and have a blessed, wonderful relationship! We even look alike in so many ways. She is more than I was expecting! Thank you for your website, Adopted.com!
