Please be aware of the Rootschat Policy as outlined below - there is so much identity theft at present so it is also for your own protection.
Please do not post requests asking for help to find (possibly) living relatives or friends.
RootsChat is a forum for searching for ancestors. Anything posted on the internet is in the public domain where anybody can see this information. To protect people and their identities we do not encourage the posting of information about people who are or maybe still living.
Even with permission from the subject of a post we would seriously advise against giving too much information as to betray their identity.
You can find some tips for searching for living people on these RootsChat topics:
