The New Zealand Friends & Family Register is a free service to help us reconnect. Adding someone that is missing to the registry provides a public notice that someone is looking. In turn, this may lead to the person or people that know someone reading the notice. This is what is known in the industry as a lost contact register and is not intended for missing persons. We have another section to cover such cases.

I’m looking for Helen (formerly?) Malcolm. Originally from Skeet Road PO Box 15, Hawera, Taranaki New Zealand. We worked together with our house manager Katrina (and others working for Windgap) at McCullough House, Mascot, Sydney in – I think – 1992-93. We were care workers, working with Nick, Carl, Diana and Chrissie. It was a great year! I would like to say hello – find out how the last 30 years (!) have been. And apologise for being so useless at staying in touch.
Been too long, and haven’t heard from you in a while.
My wife and I met Celia and Hugh Laity the first time in 1986 and then again in 2015 at their place at Lake Taupo.
They called us in 2018, they moved to Bay of Plenty but there email no longer works
Hi
I am looking for my brother who was adopted at 13 months old , his date of birth I have is 4th March 1952. He might not have the name John now but I have his adopted family as Duke.
I would love to find him, my name is Lisa and I was adopted as well in 1956.
Julie Wilson (Maiden name, not sure if she married) and Judy Turner (never married) were good mates in Christchurch during the 70’s. Julie has a brother who taught at Riccarton High in Christchurch around the same time. Julie moved to the North Island (Auckland I think) and Judy to Southland and unfortunately they lost touch. They both have 60th birthdays coming up and I am trying to find Julie as a suprise for my sister Judy..
Any info would be great.
Cheers
Joan
