I wouldn't put too much credence in ancestry's "ethnicity estimate" and it would probably be quite difficult to figure out how he is related to the two Australians until he has a name (for himself) to go on.
No I don’t think so Kate.

We have a problem in that most of my communication is with his wife, he has been quite ill over the last few years, heart attack and stroke. This revelelation has hit him for six so to speak so his wife and I are trying to find out as much as we can without exacerbating his illness.

Plus, it looks like he wasn’t actually adopted. They just pretended he was for some unknown reason.
