Hi,

My name is Mairead, I am almost 20 years old, I am Irish, born and raised close to Dublin, Ireland. My bio-father's name is Daniel Bade, and his parents once had an address in Indiana. He and my Mum, Ruth, met in Paris while she was working as an au pair, and they last saw each other in America, some time in 1986.

I would love to find my bio-dad, if only just to know that he is actually out there.

If anyone can help me, please email me at taxiforone@vodafone.ie

Thanks,

Mairead.

If you know his parents names, and the city in Indiana in which they lived - try contacting that particular city for info. If it is a small town, you may accidently bump into someone who knows them.

It will be a start. Also - try a simple google search for his name. You would be surprised at what turns up. Also, if he was born in Indiana - or lived there for any period of time, there will be records. Find the last know address - send a letter, and request that it be forwarded if a new address is aavilable. This often works, too.

Good luck to you.
