Hello Gary. When I want to find out about people I am researching, I find
the local paper and write a "Letter to the Editor" saying I am looking for
xyz for my family tree research. The paper usually prints the letter and I
have had a lot of success with this method of looking for rellies. Cheers
Bob in Melbourne
