Seeking Seeking Jonathon Toshiyuki Kawamoto Roll possibly going by Toshiyuki Ozaki living in Osaka.

[John Roll]

I am an English speaker living in the United States. My (ex) Japanese wife is from Hiroshima. We met in California in 1982, married and had a son in 1983. She returned to Hiroshima in 1984. We divorced in 1986. She married a Japanese man, and he adopted (according to my ex-wife, my son). My son visited me for the summer in 1992. He had a U.S. passport when he left the U.S. and in 1992, he had a Japanese passport. His U.S. passport was Jonathon Toshiyiki Kawamoto Roll (his birth name), and his Japanese passport was Toshiyuki Ozaki. No contact since he returned to Japan in 1992. Found my ex on Facebook (Sachie Ozaki Kawamoto). Contacted her, and she replied that our son lives in Osaka, is married, and has a son. And that I should contact him but never gave me an address and does not return my messages. That was several years ago. My son will be 40 in August, and I wanted to try and find him as I still have his baby pictures and other things that I would like to give him. I am 65 years old, and I have listed him to receive part of my estate if he can be located.

I understand that he may not want to communicate with me, but I want to let him know that I would like to contact him.

Thanks for looking but no.

Thanks for looking but no.

I searched FB for those names including people linked to your ex but didn't have any luck. I don't have any other ideas but I hope you can get in touch.

Thank you, I think that I will need a Detective Agency.

Thank you for looking and the suggestion. I have not been able to locate him on social media. I have been able to locate my ex-wife but no links to my son.

Can you translate please?

Maybe this?

That does look like 尾崎 (Ozaki) 歳行 (Toshiyuki)

Can you translate please?

"The disaster location is across the river, so we are fine. It's just a shame that the number of dead and missing is increasing as time goes on."

Hi John, sorry to leave you hanging. I looked around, but could not find anything on Toshiyuki Ozaki (尾崎歳行). You may have to hire a private investigator. Since you now know his name in Japanese, and you know his mother was active on social media, the probability that you can find him by using a private detective is quite high. Well, that's my impression anyway. Another thing, since you've got his name here on this thread, there is a chance he could be looking for you as well, and if he sees this thread he has a way to get in touch with you.

 

[John Roll]

Thank you for your advice and kind words of encouragement.
