Hi Natasha.

I assume you are a relative? If this was in the UK you can put your details on the National Adoption Register - If she goes looking for her birth family she might well have registered on there. This is the link

http://www.ukbirth-adoptionregister.com/resources.php

Put any names you have - hers included - into search box above - opt for 'search all member trees'. A long shot but you might as well.

Also worth seeing if you can have your contact details added to her adoption file, again if she goes looking they will be there for her to find.

Good luck!

Only the adoptee has any right to find out about his/her adoption. .

What is your connection to this person?

He will need to follow the steps outlined above - it does depend on her wanting to be found though.
You do not say when or where she was born, but there are several members with an Andrea Greenhalgh in their tree so worth a look.
