Exactly why I suggested trying it at 12.07 yesterday.

I had simply wanted to guide the poster because I had no idea what the family situation was or who the poster was then.

The thread was 'Searching for a close friend' yet the poster began 'We are looking for our estranged grandchildren'. It made me wonder .....

Sorry folks, I am ever the 'doubting Thomas' my Dad used to call me. :-)

Always difficult in this sort of situation, you want to help the searcher but not to intrude on the privacy of those being sought.

That is very true Rambling Rose. With a lot of help from someone I found my adopted brother and sister (twins). They didn't want contact, and while I am pleased that I know they stayed together and have had happy lives, I also feel sad and guilty that I have unsettled them and their security. Through the intermediary that contacted them I have assured them that I will never seek further contact, but they can't 'unknow' that I found them. :-(
