My grandfather died before my mom was born so she never knew him. He died in a hospital somewhere in the U.S. When my mom grew up, she tried to contact my grandfather's sister but she had died to. Now another 20 years later, I am trying to find my relatives. I am not sure where to start. I only know the names of my grandfather's mom and dad and they are probably dead by now. What should I do?

Friends and relatives can become separated for so many reasons -- adoption, death, divorce and relocation are just a few. The search may sometimes seem endless, but our list of resources for finding lost relatives and missing friends can lead you on the right trail to finding that certain someone you've been trying so hard to locate.

A great tool to use to find relatives is Online Genealogy Search. It is the same tool that private investigators and law enforcement use and so if you paid someone to find your relatives, they will probably use this same tool then charge you a huge amount. It is much cheaper to just do it yourself.

With this Online Genealogy Search tool, you can lookup your family tree, search family history and records, Lookup vital records and reports, search death records, find lost relatives, locate your family crest, plus get an unlimited people search.

I think the unlimited people search or "pass" membership is the best for finding lost relatives because you never know where your research will take you. They also have a 100% satisfaction money back guarantee so that if you don't find who you are looking for, they will give you your money back.

Basically what you need to do is to become a member of Online Genealogy Search and then do a search on what are called vital records. Vital records are birth certificates, death records and marriage records. Once you find the birth certificate, you will have full name and date of birth and place of birth. Now you can start putting together the story of your family history by doing a marriage record search to fill in your family tree. You can also do a death records search to find out how your lost relative died. Next, you can do a property search to find out if he owned a house and where it was located. You can also do a court records search to find out if he ever had to appear in court and why. You get the idea.

Have fun!
