Living person search.
« on: Monday 19 August 19 11:58 BST (UK) »
Hi I'm new to roots chat.
I'm trying to trace a friend called removed born Montreal Quebec Canada, on the 12th June 1968/69.Was living in Toronto in early 2000's but lost touch. Cannot trace her as she married in 1990s and cannot remember her married surname. Have been unable to obtain her marriage certificate. Any help would be great.

Hello Sharon, Welcome to Rootschat.

Rootschat has a policy of no living persons.  It is meant for people tracing their ancestors rather than anyone currently living.

Why have you not been able to obtain your friend's marriage certificate?  Is there some kind of cut off date after which you cannot obtain a certificate?

Have you tried writing to a local newspaper and asking if anyone remembers her and where she may be now?  Any of her relatives that you can contact for information, her parents for example?
