    Hi schoolmouse.

    The records from St Annes were transferred to the Southern Health Board when St Annes closed down.

    I was adopted in 1980 through St Annes, and if you contact the SHB they'll be able to help.

    Adoption Department,
    SHB,
    Unit 4, South Ring Business Park,
    Kinsale Road,
    Cork.
    Tel: (021) 492 7250

    Hi folks,
    just to let you all know that I have found my son and I am now waiting for the Social Worker to do the job they are paid to do and set up a meeting asap, I am not the most patient of people and why should I be, after being denied the privilege of rearing my own off spring, but in saying that I am over the moon as my family is once more complete.

    Aw congrats schoolmouse. Not very pleasant having to wait over 3 years from your original post, to get this far I'm sure. I really hope it works out for you😀

    Well what do you know, I had a phone call from the Social Worker this evening and I am meeting with her in a couple of weeks in order to arrange with meeting up with my son, oh what joy and euphoria, after all these years, I can hardly believe it.
