Is there any way of finding out about a child being born and adopted out in 1945/50. thanks Carole NSW

Dear Carole, For privacy reasons, there are very strict guidelines for accessing records associated with adoption. As far as I know, only adopted persons and birth parents of adopted persons are allowed access. If the adopted person or birth parent is deceased, a very close relative (eg sibling) can apply to inherit the deceased persons rights. This is better explained by Post Adoption Resource Centre website www.bensoc.asn.au/parc Regards, Wayne. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carole Douch" <douch1@dodo.com.au> To: <AUS-NSW-Hunter-Valley-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, 21 July 2006 11:37am Subject: [HV] adoption > Is there any way of finding out about a child being born and adopted out in 1945/50. > > thanks > > Carole > NSW
