There is often a disagreement on the finding boards over whetherit is right or wrong to help someone find another person. |

It does say on the 'Find Living Relatives' page, that "Town or area where you think the person might be and name are acceptable." |

I have quite often been told that I shouldn't post certain information (birth, marriage, electoral registers etc.) because of data protection issues. |

As this is a genealogy site should it used to find an unrelated person just because you want to get back in contact.? |

Thanks Mistycat. I expect some, but it all, my views are affected by the very difficult situation that a friend experienced some years ago. |

I feel very uncomfortable helping, especially, a male find a missing living female, and refuse to do it. |
