Do you mean you are trying to find him, or are you trying to find out his name. If you have his name you do not need to bother with Soc.Servs. at all. Were you adopted and do not know your birth name, or did your mother manage to keep you - sorry for all the questions but suggestions and help will be different depending on which things you know or don't know.
pm me to avoid putting names of living people on the board.
