She kept her pregnancy a secret from her family and from my biological father so he doesnt know I exist. Her family found out she was pregnant when her waters broke I can only seem to find her birth certificate and cannot seem to find any other lead. Anyone have any ideas how I can find her? Kind regards Matt Reply to this message   Paula Lang (Fell) Hampshire, England Feb 07, 2018 Hi, I was born in February 1965 in Nottingham and was adopted. My late birth mother was called Mavis Fell and she lived in Mapperley, Nottingham. She was age 30 at the time and kept her pregnancy a secret from her family. She worked at Bairnswater factory and then Mapperley hospital. She had a friend called Ada and Mary who may have known. I am now trying to locate my birth father. My adoption records named him as Adrian Jacobs, who was age 22 or 23 in 1965 and was possibly not from the Nottingham area. He was 5ft 10, with dark wavy hair and was either a labourer, salesman or long distance lorry driver. He liked doing impressions and did not drink alcohol. He was possibly living temporarily in Elm Avenue, Mapperley. He was also of Jewish origin. I located an Adrian Jacobs on public records who was born in 1943, but this has been investigated and proven not to be him. The next few matches on public records dont really fit with circumstances. I have my DNA on various sites, but only have 3rd cousin matches so far. All surnames differ and none are Jacobs. Endogomy makes this harder and matches are probably much more distant than predicted. Does anyone know any information or have some advice please? I am beginning to wonder this may have not been his name. Thank you.
