Hi Everyone,

Occasionally I receive requests from people to find lost relatives.

Hi Everyone,

Occasionally I receive requests from people to find lost relatives. The
people that move me the most are those that are searching for a parent
that gave them up for adoption.

Can any of you share some of your genealogy searching skills in advising
how a person would hunt for their birth parents?

The person who provoked my latest interest said she knew her birth
mother was a Maria Rodriguez and grandmother named Ramona and that she
had been born in San Diego. I could only advise her get a good long
distance calling plan and call ALL of the Rodriguez in San Diego in
hopes of finding someone that knew of a Maria with a mother named Ramona.

What else would be good advice to share?

IF Anyone would like to work on a file that would gather several
different techniques for searching for living relatives that would be
great since I have come across many seeking not their genealogy but
rather their missing relatives.
