Doing a lot of sorting and cleaning of old pictures and would like to find some cousins that I have not seen or heard from in over 50 years. Has anyone used any of those sites that find people and had success.
I am not opposed to paying a fee. I just would like to get these pictures to the relatives that should have them.

Thanks for any info.

I know quite a few guys leasing for oil companies that used ancestry.com and had good success tracking people down. If you struggle finding who you are looking for, you can pm me some names and I could have someone who tracks people down for a living take a crack at it. Good luck.

I got ahold of one of the guys who uses these sites regularly. He said ancestry.com is great but it’s like $300 a year. I didn’t ask if you could sign up for a shorter period. He also said whitepages premium was good as well. He sent me his user name and password so I can look it up for you if you can’t find them. I’m guessing you did a simple google search already? White pages is a good free one but can be hit and miss.

SE ND.
Win a big time lottery and you might find you have relatives you never even knew about.

It's 2018, if you want to find them use the internet. You can also run a backround check on them for like $40.

Pretty sure ancestry.com is free to use at most public libraries in ND if that helps

I have several relatives that I’ve decided I don’t want to be related to anymore, I’d be happy to send them your way if your feeling shorted.
