Has anyone had a hard time finding people?

I was wondering how long it can take to find some relations.

Has it taken anyone else many months to a year?

Also, any suggestions that might help?

The trouble is my grandmother was separated from her two siblings when her mother passed.

Thanks!

Yes, sometimes it takes quite a while. If you know names, you can check www.findagrave.com. Also check the Social Security Death Index online, as well as www.whitepages.com for living persons. And even Googling names might produce results.

Are you looking for the living, or researching your family history? If the former, post on the appropriate Lost Family & Friends board If the latter, post on the surname or location board. Be sure to provide as many details as possible to make it easier for someone to help.

Thank you so much for sharing that information with me. I don't know who's living. But I do know two of the dead. I will take this advice to heart. Thank you again.
