Reunion is an Internet based business, where clients register the
details of other people they are searching for, on our web site. Our
aim is reunite lost family and friends through the Internet.

Jenkins from The Courier Mail, Australian Net Guide, Andy Wells.com,
MsMegaByte, Damien Nowicki from W.A.'s Sunday Times, Nick Galvin from
ICON & the Sydney Morning Herald, and the Sunshine Coast Daily. See below for a copy of the articles
written about us.
With an amazing number of ‘hits’ since
inception, our listings are growing each day. New entries are arriving
from all over the world, for people looking for other people in Australia.
Our Event
Register consists of many categories which most are a FREE community
service. These include family & friends, military, emergency
services, & sports club reunions. There is no charge and no
time limit on these listings.
The other section is
the classifieds, where an ad of 100
words or less can be placed for a one-off payment of AUD$20.00. You
can also include a FREE photo with your ad. These pages consist of
an Adoption Register, Lost
Loves (child hood sweethearts), Heirs,
Missing Persons, Lost
Contact, Here I Am ,Descendants
section and School Reunions. There are also some great genealogy links on the "descendants
page", by each state, that should interest a lot of people.
The site enables people
to have one central point of reference on the Internet if they are
planning a reunion in Australia, or would like to see if for example
their school is having a 10 year reunion.
Mike Doroshenko has a personal interest
in family history, as well as genealogy, and missing persons. The site
has been in the planning for six years, and he created the concept
from a need to locate a long lost stepbrother he is searching for. The
details have been posted on the "missing persons" page.
"There was no Australian Internet
site that combined all types of reunions into one, so I decided to build
one myself, hoping to help other people on the way as well". It
was created to cater for Australian interests only. There are
many sites in America where they specialize in military, high school
reunions and missing persons. So why not put them all together on an
Australian site!
Our
goal is to reunite Australian family & friends who are for example,
missing, adoption cases, old school friends, heirs, lost loves, or people who have lost
contact with each other, using the Internet.
We
are not a private investigator firm, and we do not track down individual
cases. It is merely an avenue to post information on an "Australian
only" Internet site. The concept is designed to compliment any
other searching means you are presently trying.
Gaining
maximum exposure in advertising, word of mouth, etc. we are currently
attracting over 500,000 hits per month, and increasing rapidly, as more
people find out about us !
If you have any comments or suggestions
for the site please send us an email

is the director and sole trader of Oz Reunion. The website was
created by her husband Mike, who also has a personal interest in family history, as well as genealogy,
and missing persons. The site was in the planning since 1994, and
was launched in 2000. Mike created the concept from a need to locate a long lost
half-brother he was searching for, which he has now been found
thanks to this website.
