Her father's name was William (Bill).I believe she was put in an orphanage in Scotland about 1953-55? My mother was her father's oldest sister. If anyone has any knowledge of this lady please contact. |

| I'm looking for my birth mother (or any relatives). I was born in Nairobi Hospital in Kenya on 17/02/1977. I believe my mother was from Scotland and was a nurse in Kenya at the time. I think (though am not sure, she left Kenya after my adoption - about 5 months after I was born). Any information would be welcomed. Thanks. |

I tried to put this forth into success stories, but for some reason can't get through. Cane get through to here though.
Anyway, I would like to share that I have successfully found my birth mother and siblings.
My two sisters contacted me; I had written my mum and uncle; and now we are all in contact back and forth.
The parents that adopted me are going down to meet with them soon and hopefully, I'll get a chance to get over to Scotland very, very, very soon.
To all those adoptees out there, don't give up.
You'll be surprised to find that a lot of parents have been looking for you/their own. It is harder for them to get the info on us than it is vice versa.
Good luck everyone! |
