How do you find people that are long lost? I have two half sisters, twins, they are a little older than me by about 10 years or so. How do you find people like that?

I would start with any blood relatives they have, then start looking for friends, males naturally would be easier to find. If you know of what schools or school systems they went to, you might try yearbooks, then see if you can try down alumni committees. You don't give their ages when you last had contact with them or how old they are now, that would help too. They might never have married, they might be on mylot for all you know. The more info, the better we can help.

Well, I would start with the high school, see if you can find the yearbook committee or try contacting people in their class. See if you can find a friend who may have still kept in touch with them. You can also try the department of vital statistics, see if you can find marriage licenses. Try community colleges, see if they registered there, look in yearbooks etc, If you can find a major, it might be easier to figure out which college they went too. You can also do searches on their names, first and last names, check out classmates.com as well,.

yea I tried that I found someone on myspace with the same name, but it wasnt her. I could try marriage records, though I do not know which state my dad and their mom would've been married in. Thanks for all the help =)

If you know what school they went to, the year they graduated and their names, you might be able to look them up on Facebook or one of the similar social networking sites. You might also want to try Googling their names, you would be surprised at what comes up in these searches. Even if they were married, it is possible that there will be more recent information about them under their maiden names.

I guess yo can look them up on the internet somehow. That is the only way I would go about it.

On the Internet it is very hard to find lost people but it is not impossible.To find a lost person you can register your account on Orkut,Myspace,Facebook or any other similar sites to start searching your lost friend,relative etc.These website has a great script which makes it easy for a new member to understand to script and make their searches easily.

Try to look them at your relatives near you or even in the relatives that you're not so close, and if still no finding or still not found them try to consult it to the tv and radio station and try a public notice, post picture anywhere.

In reality of life, it's truly time could only tell when and how your ways and your loved ones would cross each paths of life and how possible it is to truly happen? We don't know exactly, but if it's God's will for your long lost loved ones and you to met once again in this life...then, so it be.
