Find Ancestors

i am looking for either of my parents, i was born jennifer elizabeth ann davis 22nd april 1962 and put up for adoption in the windsor area, i believe my mother came from fifield.

Have you tried Social Services for the Windsor area?

As an adopted person you have a right to your details, and to access your bityh cert. I would contact social services (any area) for advice.
However, as you have the date, do you already have your mother's details, obviously you wouldn't want to put her name on here.

I have my mothers details but no joy in finding any info, but dont have any details for my father

April, if you want to send me her name happy to look for anything I can find on Ancestry - that is, birth or marriage.

Also, do you have any addresses on your birth cert? If so it might be worth following this up by looking on the electoral register. This has to be done in person, usually at the nearest main library. Worth a shot to see who was living there (people over 21 will be shown).

Have you registered your name on the national adoption register, just in case she is looking for you?

just ordered a birth certificate only info i have is from my adopted parents
they only knew my mother's name gladys e a davis have found her birth record but nothing else only address from my birth is windsor, berks

OK, just wait till it has arrived and se what it contains. However, I would really advise contacting social services as you can then gain access to your adoption file, and they will be able to give you better advice.

Thanks hopefully i will know more when it arrives.

OK April, maybe will speak to you again! best of luck.

You can register your details on the Adoption Contact Register, Southport (all info on website), as can birth relatives of adopted people. If there is ever a match, you will both be contacted by the administrators of the Register.

Also, try NORCAP, they specialise in trying to reunite adopted people with their birth families.

And as Jan suggests, you can contact the Post Adoption Team at the Social Services Dept in the area the adoption took place and the area you live now.
