Unknown Relative
« on: Sunday 23 December 12 21:14 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for a relative...I do not know if he is living or not, and I do not know his name. He would have been born in the 1930s, likely in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. His father was Charles Henry Cornford...he went by Charles Henry (dropped his last name). The child was raised by his mother, as Charles was married to another lady at the time. Any tips would be helpful.

That's going to be a very tough search Amber. Birth records aren't available in Saskatchewan, and it is a very recent birth.

Have you tried to find the father on the recently released Voter's Lists? If you tracked him, you might be able to find an obit which might lead you to a family member who might know of the "missing" family member.

Thanks for your response RedMystic. Unfortunately, even his siblings do not know his name.
