Hi
I am looking for my father who is from Lagos originally, he came to England and meet my mam Janet Benton. They were not together long and my mam fell pregnant with me, I was born in May 1978 in Easington colliery peterlee. I think hey meet up in London, my Father came over here to study.My mam does not remember much as she had a disease of the brain which made her forget. All she can remember is his first name was Kay (which was probably shortened when he came to this country) she also said his last name was Okanara or Okinawa (which I am not sure if this is the correct spellings and not even sure if I am pronouncing it right)

He gave me a middle name which is Bici ( not sure if I am spelling this correctly either) as he was not around when I was born so his name is not on my birth certificate, but it was something he requested to my mam, she never put it on my birth certificate though. I had an operation when I was 1yr old to where I needed blood transfusion and my dad had to provide the blood as we were the same blood type.

I am looking for any help, anyone can provide. Such correct spelling of name or which tribe it originated from, it would be really appreciated.

Goodluck in finding your father... Its "Bisi" not "Bici". Your father's name may have been Kayode or Kehinde (popular shortened names)...

oh!!! hope u find him soon

U will see him by Gods grace

op @ topic father not farther

Goodluck in your search..... but in my own humble opinion, I believe a father who is fully aware of the product of his affair with a lady and haven't done what every reasonable man should do to at least know his child is really not worthy of being called that, and If i were to be you, I'll erase his memory from my mind and continue my life.... that's ma opinion.... but we all are different.... so goodluck.

Raymondenyi, I totally understand what you are saying. But it is something I want to do, even to say I have met him to see what he looks like.
