I am trying to find John Cooney who worked as a Occupation Health Nurse at Edgar Allen's Steel Foundry in Sheffield, South Yorkshire certainly in 1975. I don't know how old he is or where he comes from but he possibly has links to Bolsover in Derbyshire and possibly worked abroad in Saudi Arabia.

I would welcome any information anyone can offer, I am nearly 35 years old and just learnt last week that the man who my Mum told me was my Dad at the age of 18 isn't. I feel like I have a missing piece, almost like half of my life is missing.

There is a good chance he doesn't know I exist.

Thanks for reading
