My biological mothers name was Marilyn Haggar and she informed me that my biological fathers name is John Mills and he would now be approximately 79 years old.

My Mother born in August 1963, was adopted in a little in a country town either in QLD or NSW. She was roughly 6 weeks old at time of adoption. and was given to adoptive parents at a small country town hospital She was given the name i believe at time of adoption- Jann Margaret Bowden.
