A Few of Our Members Currently Searching Within Tasmania Who Chose To Be Featured
16. Chrynn : I am looking for a possible niece/nephew. As a teenager I recall my sisters friend becoming pregnant and adopting the baby out. I later found out that this child may be my brothers. Mother’s name Anne and the baby was born somewhere around 1974 - 1976. May have a hereditary eye condition. Not much info to go on. I do have the mother’s surname but not prepared to provide that at the moment. Mother would have been around 15 or 16 at the time. Not sure if contact has been made with your birth mother as my contact with her has been minimal over the years, but all is not lost, I could find her again (I think). I think I’m looking for a needle in a haystack.

19. Hayley2017 : ’MARY-ANNE’ ARE YOU OUT THERE? You are my cousin and you were given away for private adoption by your birth mother Elizabeth whilst your father‚ my late Uncle Derek‚ was away on a business trip. This was done without either his knowledge or consent!
We don’t know your exact birthdate‚ but you were born some time between 62/68 probably in Melbourne‚ Victoria or Perth (maybe even Tasmania) Australia.
Elizabeth Robinson was from Tasmania and became highly qualified in the medical world working for a while in Perth hospital (or else ’a’ Perth hospital). Derek ( please message me for his surname) was from the north of England but was based in Australia for well over 20 years where he was a successful business man In his capacity as an Associate of the Royal Institute of Industrial Chemistry ( A.R.I.I.C. ).
Derek often felt it likely that you had been given to a Doctor’s family‚ as Elizabeth socialised predominantly in medical circles‚ but Elizabeth would never reveal your whereabouts and so my broken hearted Uncle could never find you! Not surprisingly Elizabeth’s actions destroyed their relationship and their forthcoming marriage plans. Please get in touch if you think these details might fit. You have a loving family on your father’s side who want to know all about you and help answer all your questions.

23. RayleneDeverell : As far as she knows, Raylene was born Judith Mary Holden at 11:45pm on Feb 1, 1957 in Devonport, Tasmania. Her mother left her in hospital and when she was 10 days old Trevor Deverell picked her up and adopted her. Her name changed to Raylene Joyce Deverell. She thinks her birth father was named Allen Harrison. She would mostly like to know if she has any birth brothers or sisters or half brothers or sisters. And if possible some history of her birth parents. She thinks Allen may have had other children named Phillip, Janette and David, and that he married someone named Betty Hiller. She found a half brother from her mother named Shawn and a half sister named Robin. As far as she knows all family would still be in Tasmania. She did meet her mother once but it didn’t go very well.

27. GennaLee : i am searching for my nans birth parents.
the story goes...nan was adopted in 1936(?).
she was born in 1934 but adopted at 18 months old from Mothercraft Home in Tasmania.
the lady who adopted her was Daisy Theodora Little(nee Reeves).
daisy had other children between the ages of 6 and 16 at the time she adopted my nan. nans name is Ayleen Little by the way.
daisys eldest, a daughter named Eulie would have been approx 16 years old at the time and living on school grounds with her younger brother and daisy as daisy was a school teacher.
the youngest brother reginald lived in the family home with daisys mother emeila odrich(married name reeves, remarried to etchells)
daisy was a widow before ayleen came along. amos died due to complications after smoke inhalation after a fire tore through their property.
ayleen has never seeked her birth family due to her dementia which came on many years ago. no paperwork can be found thus far. no original birth certificate and no adoption record. im under the impression that the adoption was not legal and perhaps she was adopted from another family member. dna testing is my next step to solving this puzzle,.
