Hi, I have just come across this message, it maybe 8 years on, but I have just started working on this side of my family tree. I am a direct descendant of the cullimores (my grandfather should have been a cullimore but was born out of wedlock and took his mother's maiden name), he was placed in foster care, not adopted, as his parents were to marry then take him home. By the time this happened he was settled and remained fostered until leaving home. After his parents married the had more children which our family came into contact with several years ago. I have not personally met any of them but I do have the family tree that was started.
Kind regards, Toni (New Zealand)
