It doesn't matter that they don't know about you, if they know they are adopted and have accessed their adoption records they 'may' have registered on it themselves expressing their wishes in case any of the other siblings or parents try to make contact.

Likewise they may have worked out there may be later siblings to their parent/s, by looking on BMDs on one of the genealogy sites.

Ok thanks I'll register on that but I don't think it will work as they don't know about me but worth a try

Jessica please stick to this one thread, otherwise it risks people duplicating info, as we all look on all the boards really.

You need to register on the Adoption contact register, and also read the info there re using an intermediary.

Michael was born before the marriage, which was in the 3rd quarter, so is reg in both surnames.

My parents where married and our mum is only on our birth certificates no dad is mentioned

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it

Well usually that means that the parents weren't married but the father is named on birth certificates

Wow that is weird as she has registered him under 2 different names

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 13:39

Michael D is also registered as Leverington, as is another child born 1982, do you know if she is connected? Note she is registered under 2 surnames, you can see them on https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

I doubt that Ian is closely connected, as he was born Australia.

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 12:30

Hi, I've seen that yeah I've sent him a message just waiting on a reply

Someone named Ian seems to have you in his tree on here. Have you tried to make contact?

Jessica

Jessica Report 14 Jun 2019 12:27

The younger boy is my brother who didn't get adopted too! Us 2 stayed with my mum and my stepdad, that's all I know I'm so confused and hurt that I can't get to find these x

Ok thanks so much Erika H. That's what I thought about the last names. Our dad has died but my mum is still alive. I don't speak to my mum but all I know is ther 3 siblings I'm looking for got adopted and I didn't and the 3 I am looking for are my full siblings

ErikaH

ErikaH Report 14 Jun 2019 12:26

Records show a birth of a boy younger than you.

ErikaH

ErikaH Report 14 Jun 2019 12:18

Their names will not be the same as they were at birth.

You say you have no family - does that mean that both of your parents have died? And that neither of them had siblings?

All I know is one is called Craig Andrew Lyons born in 1987, alison Elizabeth Lyons born in 1985 and Michael Daniel Lyons born in 1985.
