Welcome to the boards, Kathy.

Could you tell us where you have looked for him and his sisters?
When were you last in contact?
Do you know the names of their parents, and have you used free bmd to try and find the names of the sisters?

Thank-you

This looks like Dorren, with incorrect spelling for mother's maiden name:
Births Sep 1948
Goff Doreen Linch Birmingham 9c 1073
and Mary, so no middle names;
Births Dec 1954
Goff Mary Lynch Birmingham 9c 545
