You can ask for help in
composing your message for the best chance of success. You can also ask us about any
aspect of searching, for example we can tell you about the Official Adoption Contacts

sites, e. g. genealogy, armed services, automatic directories, etc.
Posting Your Message - Compose your message carefully in advance. Read other
messages to give yourself the best ideas. Draft what you want to say on paper or as a
Word document. When you are happy with the best possible text, type it into the box

None of your personal details will be shown on the web. Your email address will also
not be shown. If somebody recognises your details, they can reply by clicking on the

Before posting your message on our MessageMatch Boards, have a look at some of the
messages posted there already. Then compose your message carefully. Once you have
posted your message you may return to the message by logging onto MessageMatch. Each
message is unique and can be identified by the title it is given at creation. From the
MessageMatch page you will be able to edit previously posted messages. From your own
MessageMatch login page you can view all responses to your messages. This will save
you having to trawl through all of the messages on the message board pages in order to
view your responses. You will also see from there further information about the
responses to your message.
Anyone in the world can reply to an original message. There is no charge to reply and
no details are required at that stage. The amount and detail of information submitted
is totally dependent on the respondent.
