Found out I was adopted my mother is no help she has given me approx age and name at this point don't know whether to believe.

I'm confused on what you actually want to know. Could you provide some details?

Were you adopted by a set of adoptive parents? Adopted by a stepfather and you're looking for a biological father?

Were you not adopted at all, but found out that the father you thought was yours IS your father--just not biologically?

Who are you looking for, and what are your circumstances?

I agree with the above posts about not having enough information in order to give you a good answer.

Adoptive parents do not automatically know the names and locations of the birth parents.
