Hi Bush
Welcome to the Bee Gees.
Can you post any info you have on your father, assuming he is no longer alive, on the brickwall forum and lets see what we can find.
Edit:
Opps, just noticed another message of yours which suggests you are adopted.
We can not discuss possible living people in this forum. That's the rules I'm afraid.
Only in Personal messages.
Good Luck
Richard

Hi brushwood7, and a very warm welcome to the forums!

This forum is just for introducing yourself, so it's best not to post any research queries here.

Have a good look around, and perhaps a read of this helpful message.

Then please go ahead and re-post your query, either on an appropriate county forum or perhaps on the General Family History forum.

No doubt our members will be keen to help you out if they can.
