Ken: I doubt if anyone on this board can help you, but not because we don't want to. There are several agencies that can do so, as evidenced on Oprah, for about 50 bucks, American. If you are not familiar with them, go to the Oprah website, I'm sure there's a link.

For what it's worth, my mother was "adopted" at the age of 14, after living a few years in an orphanage. She lost contact with ALL her brothers and sisters for the next 50 some odd years!

At the age of about 60 or so, she FOUND them all, and has had the time of her life ever since! It is NEVER too late! I only hope MY daughter feels the same way someday!

Best of luck to you! You give me hope.

I'm sorry I can't offer you more help.

My grandfather went through some Catholic association to locate my uncle years back.........took quite some time but they did locate the uncle (in Ireland) and grand dad never had to pay those services, it's been quite a few years now but there may still be some places out there....thinking there are some sites you can go and register at looking for loved ones/relatives whatnot that you've lost contact with over the years....

Wishing you all the best over there

Call England and leave him a message

Well after 15 years of searching i finally found him! The bad part is that it was 3 months too late. :cry: I never did get to meet him but atleast i know whats happend to him. Heres his obituary for all the truckers that knew him. http://www.jdnews.com/articles/jacks...tyler_ted.html

I'm sorry to hear that. At least you did try to find him.
