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 Queensland, 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 Queensland Who Chose To Be Featured
586. MLEB : I am seeking information on Mr Leslie Thomas Staines‚ biological son of Eric Aubrey Staines and Mary Magdalene Gerhardt. After his birth‚ I can find no record of him anywhere and I believe that he was fostered out when he was a child‚ with a view to adoption.
587. AnnieFraser : Hello‚ my name is Annie. I am searching for the birth parents of my adopted brother. He is now 50-51 years old and was adopted as a new borne from the Brisbane hospital. His birth certificate says may but it is suspected this was altered and he may be older as my parents passed him off as their own. His adopted parents were from Bowen Qld and moved to the Northern Territory straight after adoption.
He is approx. 178cm tall‚ caucasion‚ with blue/ hazel eyes and brown hair.
588. Megsie : I was born at Southport and adopted out to a great family. I have only just found out about the adoption. I may or may not be part of a twin?
589. Matty1977free : Born in Mataranka hospital Brisbane.
Adopted around 9 months old.
Birth mother died when i was 4.
Adopted parents apparently kept in touch with her till then.
590. MollyPhoebe1986 : I am in search of my sister‚ adopted out in 1971. Born at Brisbane women’s and children’s Hospital‚ Brisbane‚ Queensland Australia. Born on the 6th of August 1971. Your name was given as Talia Leah. My mother’s initials are APK‚ Please reach out. This wasn’t by choice. And you have a loving family who would love to meet you.
591. Bethkk : Looking for a cousin‚ son or daughter of my uncle Robert Edward Bruce. She or he was born in Brisbane in the early 60s-Bob died in 1964 and we know nothing of the child. Bob was in the Navy‚ and we had lots of family in QLD but none of our circle is any the wiser. Dates and year of birth are not correct‚ a guess because the search engine requires it-the older family members tried to hide the details from us.
594. Melfay1978 : I was born in Brisbane my biological mother’s name was Denise hall‚ also known as rozalia Elizabeth‚ I am looking for my biological dad‚ my mother gave me to an orphanage as a baby.
595. Melfay1978 : I am searching for my biological father and any brothers or sisters I could have‚ my biological mother’s name was Denise hall. I have twin older brothers and an older sister‚ we were all in the orphanage together. I met my biological mother at 18 but she does not remember who my dad is‚ she did give me a possible name of a guy called Paul shipstone. I was born in Brisbane.
597. Shazza72 : Hello. It would be lovely to meet and understand my family medical history. I have 2 children of my own and want to ensure that they have all the information available should they decide to have children of their own. I can only imagine it would also be lovely for you to know what happened to your adopted twins.
598. EWinzar : I am seeking any family members of my father who was named Douglas at birth (Jan 26‚ 1965) in Brisbane Qld‚ adopted around 4 weeks later and he was renamed Gregory. I sighted the original birth certificate sometime in my teens and vaguely recall a young birth mother (possibly Elizabeth?) with no birth father listed.
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.

I have found my daughter! I got on adopted.com on Friday about 8pm. I had 6 matches‚ I sent out 3 messages and my daughter Karen was the first one to reply. By 9pm we were emailing each other.
