Post Adoptive Trace Enquiries – Tracing Birth Parents

Adopted Adults will probably never have known their birth parents and, although possibly being brought up in a loving adopted family, the emotional turmoil of “not knowing” can linger throughout and into adulthood.

Adopted adults in the UK  have had the right since 1975  to see their original birth certificate when they turn 18. Since legal adoption was first introduced, the age for this in Scotland has been 16 years old. With this information, it is possible to find out the birth mothers’ name, and in some cases the birth fathers’ name too. For some, just the knowledge of who their birth parents are is enough. However, in some cases, they may also want to trace and locate their birth parents.

How can I trace my birth parents?

There are a number of methods available to trace birth parents. The UK Government offer the Adoption-Contact-Register, where the adopted children can leave personal details, indicating to their biological family that they wish to contact them. However, this requires the biological relatives to have also registered for it to be effective.

You could also hire a Private Investigator firm to help track down your birth parents.
