Have you put your names on the GRO adoption contact register?

https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

Do you know what his name became after adoption? If not, there is no way of linking an entry in the GRO birth index with an entry in the GRO adopted childrens index and so very little way of tracing him through the normal routes.

Good luck!
