I am searching for my fathers brother Desmond who was possibly placed in the homes in Pontypridd in 1949 onwards He has used this site in the past but no longer uses it I think. Any imformation would be fantastic, we would love to find him.

Have you tried www.192.com?

If he has a tree on GR, have you actually attempted to make contact through this site?

When was he born?

Was he adopted?

If he was born in 1949, his birth is the only record of him on any site.

I think the answer to the adoption question is 'yes'.............having looked under 'search trees'

Good grief how did you know all this imfo lol. Yes he was put in the homes undoubtedly due to Mabel's history of unwanted children, but how was you so certain can i ask? Yes i have messaged him but I can see he hasn't opened his mail so probably dosnt use the site anymore. Think i must have joined just after he gave up maybe. Any suggestions would be kindly received Reggie.
