Welcome....
Hello, my name is Gilbert
Leroy Sipkema. That
is what my adoptive
parents named me from:
Paul Edward Wilson.
I just would love to
state for the record
that not all adoptee's
who are searching for
their birth mother,
birth father or
birth
siblings are going to
have an easy time of
it. Sometimes for whatever
reasons your birth last
name don’t match your
search, and this can
get very frustrating.
No, I am not here to
scare you, that is if
you are searching and
you’re getting stuck.
There could be a number
of reasons why.
In my case, my birth
mother was already
separated, living
with my uncle
Lloyd,
and seeing my birth
father, James Edward
Leeming. While divorced,
she kept her married
name Wilson and used
that when I was born.
I want to
make you
successful into finding
your family without
the hardships I had
encountered. It is
very difficult for
me to see other adoptee's
experiencing the
long
road on their own.
I know that can be
very discouraging.
The only thing
that
I could advise, if
you are doing this
yourself and anxious
to find your birth
relatives, be patience,
thorough and have
the time. Otherwise
with that find a researcher,
organization that
find people or even
an investigator.
When approaching
your background and
searching for answers
I must state
that as for me I loved
it! Yes it is a lot
of work and sad times
to see along the
way
as well as confusing
times doing your search.
I have been fortunate
enough
to locate my entire
birth family. With
all the knowledge
I have gained 16 years
now doing research.
I have the time and
experience to contribute
my skills and dedication,
to your search. We
also do searches for
non adoptee's to reunite
with lost family members,
loved ones, and friends.
