Help finding a Living Relative
« on: Wednesday 07 September 05 16:32 BST (UK) »
 Wink Hello,

Can anyone tell me how I go about tracing a living relative. Her name is Rita Ray Stemmerik, nee Buesden, last heard living in Bentley, Western Australia, when she was a 'mother' in a elderly care home.
When she last telephoned her brother, she left a message on the dreaded ansaphone Huh so no-one got to speak to her. She'd be about 75 years young. She's never managed to leave any contact details & we'd love to get in touch.

Any help please

You could start with the phone book:

After that there is the electoral roll - but I don't think that is online.


Cheers
Leonie

PS:  got this on the first hit:

The country code is 61.  You would dial 61 8 9355 4595 .
