Ideas for Finding Survivors
« on: July 19, 2005, 03:27:00 PM »
I could use some idaes for finding some old survivors. I don't have any money. One way I thought I could do a search for old survivors in my Straight was to just do a phone book look up, or even an internet search. I could stop by some of the oldcomer houses I was in, see if they're still there. Someone else gave me a suggestion to look up houses by Pinellas County Appraiser and Owner information. I can just enter names and stuff like that. I figured since I can't gte to nany posble====== police records I shuold try other creativer ways to finding pepoele who wre in straght wiht me.

I still have a few of those client adress books from Dallas.  Maybe some flordia people still have "dime theorpy" sheets.  Most probley moved off, but it's a starting point for tracking.

I've used a lot of different sources for tracking people down.

Old 7th Step lists, you can enter the phone numbers in a reverse phone search on http://www.whitepages.com

http://www.google.com is a great way to find people.

http://www.classmates.com is where I've found a few people if you know the year and school they graduated from.

Looking up parents on the internet is a pretty reliable way if you remember their names.  I was really suprised at how many parents still lived in the same house and never moved.

Good Luck

Don

t\'s not for me to question How God will provide for my needs. I only have to Know that He will.

A real easy way is to search birth, death and wedding announcements, in the city they are from not just the STRAIGHT city.

I found a survivor but her last name was changed. She got married and she is in the same city as me. How can I check old wedding announcements to find out what her last name is now and possible make contact with her?
