The long lost father and daughter who appeared in the same newspaper

In 2007, Michael Dick was a concerned father who had been traveling around the UK with his family to track down his daughter, 31-year-old Lisa. He had lost contact with her ten years earlier.


Dick approached the Suffolk Free Press who agreed to help him by putting word of his search intheir newspaper. The Press took a photo of Mr. Dick and his other daughters for inclusion in the newspaper. 

Michael Dick's long-lost daughter saw the appeal and the pair were reunited. It was discovered to everyone's astonishment, that she also appeared in the photo, right behind him!

Lisa said,“I was completely shocked. Me and my mum had been standing in that exact place where the picture was taken about a minute earlier, and you can see us in the picture walking away. It is incredible.”
