| Seeking: | Raymond Thompson | |
| Location: | Greater London | |
| Message: | I am looking for my biological father, Raymond Thompson. He met my mother, Maureen Duggan, in 1960 at the Hammersmith Palais and they dated for a while. She became pregnant with me and did not know until she had lost contact with him. He therefore does not know about me. Raymond was about 19 at the time, tall, fair hair, light eyes. He was in the navy as an engineer. I was adopted a few months after birth, and recently have been reunited with Maureen and have met several half siblings -- it has been a wonderful experience for us all. I am now hoping to make contact with Raymond and understand the other half of my background and history. If you are Raymond please get in touch. I have often wondered about you. If you think you know Raymond, please encourage him to contact me. There is nothing to fear. | |
