I have always been envious of those people who have made contact with a relative. However, the other day someone sent me details of someone who had posted a message on ancestry.com in 2002 who I am sure is my cousin. I sent them an e-mail but it came back to me. Is there anyone out there who knows how I could contact them. I have their name and have posted a message on all the message boards they contacted. georgina

Georgina, What is her name? I have a cousin in Canada who I contacted quite a while ago. She last placed message in 2002. Has a new email address now which I have. Probably a different person but you ever know. Also if you put her name on here someone may know her. I contacted someone last week then realised he was also on GC site. Sandra

Georgina If you use canada 411 it comes up with only 2 people with the surname you are after both male so could be her hubby if this is her married name. www(.)canada(.)com/search/people/index(.)html Remove brackets. Karen

Karen, That was great. Thanks ever so much. Will now post a message to see if any of our Canadian members recognises the areas of the phone number and could get me an address. I could then write. Don't think I have the guts to just phone. Georgina

Crista, You are a mind of information. How an earth did you find the e-mail address. I'm sure it is correct because the one that didn't work was a lakehead one. Well I'll e-mail her now and let you know the outcome but thanks a million. Georgina

Hi Crista, HAVE MADE CONTACT. I e-mailed the Coronation Street Fan Club Website you mentioned and they contacted her. Can you believe that you would make contact with someone via Coronation Street. Anyway she sent me an e-mail just saying "you are looking for me" and I have e-mailed her back. Thanks a million. Georgina
