You could try www.walesonline.co.uk they have a forum on there. I'm sure someone could help. If it is anything like our community forum the local journos trawl the boards for stories so your plea may get into the local paper.
I have used a community forum in the past to find out about a murder in the 70's

Good luck.

Yes, its a long shot but have tried everything else. My relation Lorraine R Price born 1956 was murdered inside a college in Glamorgan, possibly Bridgend or in that general region. This would have taken place between 1973-1984 (cant see anything on death index, slight chance she may have married, as she had a daughter whose name and age we dont know.) She was attending evening classes, and being stalked by a weirdo who killed her because she wouldnt go out with him. Does this ring a bell with anyone, Im certain it would have been front page news around Bridgend. Thanks.
