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
601. Sarahperry2435 : Born May 1967 and was adopted by a lovely couple. One was in the raff and the other was a nurse. Blonde baby with blue green eyes. Some say the biological father was a mathematician. I don’t think the biological parents were married and this is why the he was put up for adoption.
602. 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

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.

I only found out as an adult and would like to find her. I was told it was a girl‚ and apparently when I was a child (maybe around the 90s) a woman came and knocked on the door to try meet dad‚ but my father turned her away. I don’t want to turn her away‚ I want to meet her.
615. DeirdreMargary : I am searching for my half sister on my biological father’s side. His name is Chester John Byrnes and he lives in the Ballina/Lismore area of New South Wales. I believe my half sister’s name could be Margaret‚ Donna or Alana. My biological mother’s name is Kerrin Byrnes. She reunited with my birth after being separated for 55 years and they are now married. Kerrin was a 16 year old schoolgirl and lived with her parents in Lismore. She was sent to St. Mary’s Home for unwed mothers in Brisbane‚ Queensland for the last stage of her pregnancy. I was born at the Ashgrove Private Hospital in Brisbane.
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.
