Go to this site for advice what to do:

Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow.

If you know a birth name and details then you can get birth certs however you cant access adoption records ,

Have you tried Search Trees to see if he is listed.

You can also add your name to the National Adoption Register ,see the GRO site, and if he also adds his name he will see your enquiry.

Try also the Norcap site

Surname Fahse. Germany. Essex .South East London My avatar is my hubby's maternal grandmother Harriet and her sister Nellie
