Finding Someone from the Past with Facebook

Some people have had luck finding someone using facebook or myspace. Facebook is set up to find high school and college friends but you can also have luck finding an old neighbor or person you knew you've been dying to reconnect with.

If this fails, I will turn to whitepages.com , use google and also try to find someone by putting in their last known e-mail address or even phone number into google.

You can also type in their friends' names or parents' names to see if you can locate them this way. Sometimes you won't find the person you know, but you'll find someone who knows them more easily. If a female has married or re-married, this can be hard to track down due to the person no longer using their former last name.

I've also found success using this database here for Locating People from the Past
