A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within New South Wales Who Chose To Be Featured
1276. Sallygill1961 : Born 2.6.61 at Braeside church of England Maternity hospital Stanmore NSW to an unmarried woman‚ Robyn Marjorie Neville who came from the orange/parkes area. There are no known marriage records in that name up to 1974. I have since discovered she moved to Holland (Yes‚ oversees) and Married a Wim Merckx. She passed away 2009.
Her parents died when she was 10‚ and her brother‚ William was adopted out. She may well have been adopted out as well. She fell pregnant with me when she was around 15 years old. She was 16 when she had me.
I am in touch with the Birth Father‚ Russell Hughes‚ surviving children and extended family. This is an amazing find alone! I have brothers!
Looking for answers for my birth mother‚ her life‚ her meaning‚ my heart just goes out for the horrors she experienced at such a tender age.
1277. Kyliemarch : I was born at Paddington womens hospital sydney. I was adopted when I was 2 years old
I was in a foster home for a bit before going to my adopted parents
My biological grandmother died and that’s one reason I was placed up for adoption
1278. Queenbish : Hi‚
I am looking for a family member who was adopted out by my grandmother. She had a child when she was 16 and we are assuming somewhere in NSW.We know nothing of the child or where the child was born but know the child had to have been born in 1962 or possibly 1963 before December.
1283. Jimmevox : Hi there‚
I was born at Hornsby hospital in Sydney‚ Australia. I know very little of my birth parents aside from my biological mother being 17 when she had me and that my biological father may have returned to Europe before my birth. My understanding is my birth was unplanned. I also believe my birth mother may have been studying to either become an Equine Veterinarian or Veterinarian . I will add more information if it comes to hand.
1284. AleishaHunt : My dad was born on the 14th Jan 1960 and passed away on the 24th Mar 1993. I know he was adopted by the Findlay family (along with many other children) and given the name Stephen Richard Findlay. I am unsure whether this took place in Australia or New Zealand. I believe his birth mother’s surname was Wallis and my dad’s birth name was Luke. I would like to connect with any family members.
1285. AnnetteK27 : Angus was named Glen Robert Bridge born at the Paddington Hospital NSW December 1965 and his birth mother’s name is Margaret Bridge.
I am searching for his mother or a family member.
The fact she gave him a middle name says there was an attachment even if she did adopt him out.
If anyone on here can help that would be appreciated. .

On Mum’s original birth certificate her mother’s name is Norma Kavapil aged 17.
We have done DNA testing with Ancestry.com and found my grandfather Sydney Musty but he had already passed away.
I have just completed a My Heritage DNA test and I’ll see what happens with it. But we would really like to meet Norma of possible.
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.
