Thanks will look into it. The child (my father) was not put into child welfare but was raised by his grandparents.
He wasn't formally adopted but legally fostered.

Yes I am aware it is public. At this stage I just need resources to find information. Also if someone has anything and It does concern any names then I will be using PM.
Thanks

Thanks cant find anything. Do you no how I can look at the census reports for about 1920 to late nineties. May be able to track down the family name through that.

Hi
Looking to make contact with a local Identity that would have information on finding out who my grandfather was.
My Father was born in the Leeston area in 1935, he was from a local farming family. He was adopted by his grandparents. His biological father was taken to court for paternity but due to no way of proving it they were unable to confirm he was my father's dad. I have heard that there was a lot of talk around town so someone may no something.

Family History Beginners Board / New Zealand 1930's famiy court cases
« on: Thursday 21 February 19 03:24 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for my grandfathers decendants. 

My grandmother fell pregnant in 1934-35 and her son (my father) was raised by his grandparents he was never legally adopted but by all intentions we all were led to believe that they were his parents until recently, he was fostered.  The father was never formally identified but I believe that a court family case was issued but was lost by the family. 

So I would like to find anyone that can point me in the right direction to find the family court papers.  I am not sure whether it was public or not.  I do no that my grandmother was sent away to a salvation army place around blenheim way.  She was from the north Canterbury district in the South Island and the family were from Kingston or Leeston. 

Any information for my search would be appreciated
 Wendy

"...My friend has only just found out that her now deceased mother was adopted and is looking to try and find out some family history."

How did your friend come by this information?
The family were told by there father before he died 18 months later, also a friend of the family has verified that she knew that she had been adopted but had no further information.
