Russia is the largest country in the world in terms of area, but only ninth in terms of population. Therefore, it is not surprising that sometimes in such a vast territory it is very difficult to find a person with whom any contacts are lost. But difficult - does not mean impossible.
Instruction manual
1
Take a look at social networks. A huge web of various social networks encompassed the entire globe, and Russia was no exception. According to statistics, every fourth family in Russia has an Internet connection at home, and almost every Internet user is registered in one or several social networks. The most popular network of this kind in our country is the VKontakte site. Slightly behind him is the world's most popular Facebook, Odnoklassniki, My World and others. It is very likely that you can find the person you need by searching for these networks. This is especially convenient if you know the person’s name but don’t know the city. Remember that you should not only search by your own last name. Perhaps the person got married or got married. Women sometimes return their maiden name. By the way, if you think that your relatives could move abroad, it is better to use international social networks.
2
Refer to the archive of the village where you once lived and perhaps your lost relatives live now. There you can find information on where to look for relatives now. You can also learn a lot about your family.
3
If you know exactly who you are looking for and in which city the people you need live, try contacting the city forums. It's great if you have a photo of the person you need - even in million-plus cities, as a rule, almost all residents are familiar with each other, if not personally, then after a few handshakes.
4
Again, if you know in which city you should look for a person, have an idea of the places where he could be, try to go there yourself. Ask people, put up ads, make inquiries. It is possible that your plan will succeed.
5
Post your ad to local newspapers. True, it is desirable that these are not free advertising publications that will place your ad in small print on the last page. But for more serious ads, of course, you have to spend money.
6
Contact the program "Wait for me." This is the first and only of its kind people search service, absolutely free. In order to leave a request for a person search, you must register on the program website and fill out the search form. You will be informed of the results of the work by e-mail or by phone if you leave it.
