I am aware discussing living people is not ok here. I met a man via this board in 2014 who is a cousin. he only posted 3 times then disappeared. what transpired is he is the son of a formerly unknown child of my dads cousin. His mother was born to my dads cousins first wife. Later this first cousin remarried and had more children with his 2nd wife who are the kids (in their late 50s) we know of. These children are still alive and did not know about their half sister until this serendipitous meeting on rootschat. Another of my cousins from that family line began to try to gently handle it to figure out if contact could be made. But as quickly as we found this man, he disappeared. I am unsure if he was just new to rootschat (he only posted 3 times and never logged in under that username again) or if he doesn't want contact.
But he seemed very keen.. he also has siblings I believe. these are all the half nephews/nieces of my dads cousins other kids. these cousins have now had to come to terms with the fact they had a sister (I believe she has been deceased since 2001) and they have nieces/nephews out there. And now we cant find the rootschat member
Where could I go with this info for assistance tracing these nieces and nephews?
