1. Judithgoyen : Searching for a half-sister born somewhere in New Zealand‚ probably in 1968. The only thing I know is that she was born with Talipes but was otherwise healthy & was given up for adoption soon after birth‚ I think. The birth mother was Suzanne Margaret Dixon‚ born in September‚ 1949. I believe she was from Wellington‚ New Zealand. If you have any information‚ please message me. Thank you
2. Pjstich : My Birth mothers name is Heather Wendy Corbett ( on my birth cert) she was born in Hawera 20/12/1956. I was born on the 4th of August and pretty sure adopted within the week of birth.
3. S_hallam : In search of any family on my dad’s side. My dad was born around 1949-1951 in New Zealand not sure where but that it was in the North Island, he was adopted to family friends of the birth mum. Don’t know the name of either of the birth parents but know that his biological father was a American soldier that returned to America.

8. Chelle78 : Hello I am trying to find an older sister who I think may have been adopted in the late 60’s or early 70’s. My grandmother was sent a letter from the grandmother of the adopted child explaining that a baby girl had been born and would be adopted out. The family of the child who was adopted out lived in Christchurch, New Zealand but may have moved to the North Island due to the daughter becoming pregnant either before or after the adopted child was born? (The father of the girl who was pregnant was the Chief Postmaster in Christchurch at the time)

In my late teenage years Judy owned the kaponga pub with her husband Wayne Herlihy.

My grandmother was Jeanette Margaret Wanstall (11/4/51 - 1/5/14) the adoption would have been in the north island potentially in the waikato/auckland regions.

My adoptive father passed away two years ago and I am just trying to find out where the other half of me comes from. Not necessarily looking for a magical reunion if that won’t slot into your current life if you see this. My name is Courtnay Low and I live in Auckland and study paramedicine and am a musician. I have my own family now and am 31. Just trying to connect the dots. Picture is my birth mother and I around 15 years ago.
