Instruction manual
1
This information, although minimal, is very important, and a search even in a densely populated city has every chance of being successful. Before proceeding to consider several ways to search, we recall that after marriage, most women change their last name. Therefore, looking for a young lady, use both options - both the maiden name and the surname "by husband."

Perhaps the most convenient (without getting up from the couch) method today is to search on social networks. The authors of popular sites actually position them in such a way: "to search and connect with those who you need and are interested in." Indicate in the criteria for the squeak all the data you know and the coordinates of the person you are looking for. The more you do this, the less results – accounts you will have to view. The method is very effective for regional and district cities, but cumbersome to search for residents of the capitals. Although, a lot depends on the prevalence of the surname.

In general, any search for a person is an appeal to databases. Among state organizations, they can help you in the city reference service, at the address bureau. In fact, in different cities and countries, these offices can have different names (we gave the most common), but the essence does not change from changing the names - they help to search for a person in the city according to the data provided about him.

If you are not an employee of law enforcement and government agencies, this does not mean that you do not have access to restricted information. There are various pirated databases of personal information about citizens, for example, the database of mobile operators. Some of them are freely available on the Internet, but there are those for which you have to either pay or fulfill a certain condition. So one of the databases will be ready to share with you in exchange for 10 new addresses merged into it. But remember, the use and dissemination of such databases is against the law.
Useful advice
Another option is to advertise on the radio or in a newspaper. However, posts with pasted up announcements will do. The word of mouth can also help you, because the rule of six handshakes has not been canceled yet.
