My Uncle contacted his cousin by writing to the local police in the town where he had the last address. They came up trumps. Keith

Jojo - if you have an address and names, try to find out if there is a local website, usually you can find it through tourist information. Lots of the smaller towns and villages have their own sites where you can put up messages. I found some rellies. this way, or rather they found me by answering my message. People have long memories, and usually love to help. Someone may be able to point you to another town, or give you a married name etc. Good luck Eileen

JoJo can I suggest you retitle your thread (something like Canadian Help Please) to attract attention of the people who may know also put it on Gen board too as there are Canadians on there regularly

Hi all, don't know if this is the correct board to put this one but here goes lol I have rellies who moved to Canada not sure when but I think in the middle 1900's. Can anyone tell me how to go about finding them, I have the address they were at but obviously they won't be there now. Regards JoJo xxxx
