A man abandoned as a newborn has reunited with his birth family after more than 65 years.
David Stevenson, an Englishman who currently resides about 75 miles north of London, was found in December 1960, abandoned in a London apartment building, at just a few days old.
Despite efforts in the media and by local police to find the family of the newborn, there was limited information on the baby’s origin and reason for his abandonment.
He was later adopted by the Stevenson family without a trace of a birth family.
The team used DNA and genealogical research, along with an old police report obtained by Julie, to locate Petra.
