Requesting Assistance Locating Birth Father - Albert Gillis, New Waterford

Surnames: Young, Gillis
I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct place but I'm hoping that I may have some luck here. Here's the background:

My biological mother was JoAnn Young, born and raised in Glace Bay, NS. She was the daughter of Joe and Jean Young. She was their oldest daughter born in 1960, graduated from Morrison High School. She passed away in April of 2005. Because of my mother's MS, I was adopted by her parents when I was about 8 years old.

She had met my biological father in New Waterford where he was from between 1977-1979. They had a brief relationship and I was born in February of 1980. It wasn't until recently that I found that my father's name is ALBERT GILLIS and is from the New Waterford area, has five other children (two boys, three girls). I know that he has moved to Ontario but I am unsure exactly where. His father did pass away in 1999 but that's all I was told. I have no other names or information. I know that in 1999 he had phoned my parents requesting information about me but was told that I didn't want to know him which couldn't be further from the truth.

Please, if anyone has any information about the family, could they please pass it along. I would love to make contact with that side of family and, if they are agreeable, get to know them. I have three small children and I would like to be able to tell them about their family.

Thank you!
