My Old Penfriend
« on: Wednesday 11 August 10 21:52 BST (UK) »
I had a penfriend in1958 and was last in touch with her in the late 60's.
We lost touch after I moved house and I found her address again when sorting through some old files.

One of those cases when life got in the way and as we get old and cast our minds back to "I wonder what happened to.........."

How can I find her again to see how life has treated her?

Her last address was West 29th Vancover 8 B.C.
Latchford. Birmingham England.
Whale.            "                 "
Herbert.   London England.
Jeffries.    Aston, Birmingham England to Canada

Look up online a current newspaper in the area where your friend lived and ask them to print a request for help.  I had the same problem as you and it worked for me!  We have even been to stay with my friends since contacting them again.
