My dad was adopted at birth from possibly Newcastle - Sydney region. He was born 2nd September 1969 by couple by the last name of Ramsay. My dad as far as I know has never made contact with he’s biological family and I’m not sure he even knows who they are it’s all very hush hush and has been my whole life. I’d like to find my biological family‚ if you think we could in some way be related please don’t hesitate to contact me.

He was born on the 5.12.1951 in Sydney - I am presuming Crown Street‚ Women’s Hospital (mothers name on the adoption paper Thelma Mavis Stephens) baby to be known as Graham Philip Campbell. The order of Adoption paper was signed and authorised on Friday 22 February 1952.
Graham sadly drowned surfing on 27.12.1974. I am seeking relatives to chat about his life and adventures. I am aware of the sadness as I was a funeral director for almost 30 years. I think about him and his birth family often.
