Instruction manual
1
Now many people have an account in various social networks. If you know only the surname and name of the person and at least his approximate age, then you can start your search there. To start a search on social networks such as Odnoklassniki, Vkontakte, or Facebook, enter the person’s last name and the city of St. Petersburg. If the person you are looking for has a page with real data there, then you will find it.
2
If the surname is common, and there are several people on the network with such data, then see photos (unless, of course, you know the person by sight). Of course, the more you know about a person, the more likely you are to find him. Surname, name, age, years of study, higher education institution, school or work will help bring you closer to your goal.
3
If you haven’t found a person in social networks, try searching differently. There is such a project as http://wikilife.ru . There you can also search for a person with minimal data. To do this, you do not even need to be registered in the system. Just enter what you know in the search form (last name, first name and year of birth are enough). The project is free.
4
Another way is the telephone database of residents of St. Petersburg, its address is http://www.nomer.org/spb/ . To find a person there, enter his data (name, surname, middle name). The site provides information on residents of St. Petersburg and the surrounding suburbs, it contains almost three and a half million entries.
5
Try to enter in the address bar of any search engine the surname, name of the person and the city of St. Petersburg in various variations. Sometimes you can find information like this.

If an independent search on the Internet has failed, you can contact the Address Bureau of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region. It is located at 6 Liteiny Prospect, St. Petersburg. You must come there personally, on weekdays during business hours. You must fill out a form where you indicate all the data known to you about who you are looking for, and pay a receipt. You will receive an answer after a while, perhaps in a few days.
