Does anyone know how I go about finding a cousin who was adopted at about 3 months old, he lived in a mother and baby unit. His mum was single and never told us. we only found out after she died.
I know the year he was born 1964 and I know where, Marsden or Marston maternity unit or mother and baby unit in staffordshire i think in Solihull.
I have looked on Findmypast.com and i have found a mother with a child but i dont know where to go from here - he may have been issed with a new birth cert with his adopted parents name on it.
i have been told he knows he was adopted and visited my aunts house after she died, but nothing else, everyone has passed now and i am stuck!!!

i am hoping you can help coz i have joined every site going to find him

cheers
