in a family emergency. How do you find someone you have lost touch with that you have known for most of your life in a family emergency?

Search MySpace and Facebook also... I've found a ton of my old friends on there, folks that I didn't think would bother with it. (I hate MySpace, only reason I'm there is because it's so easy to find old friends...) | | | |

If you know the high school the person attended, try reunion.com or classmates.com or whether there is a separate site for the high school alumni. Then send an e-mail through there. | | | |

If you think they are still within the state or DFW area, I would probably try name searches on appraisal district sites such as Tarrant (tad.org), Dallas (dallascad.org) , or Denton (dentoncad.org).
Or also try publicdata.com
Hope you find who you are looking for! | | | |

Good info Shelly, I have used those too. Also try http://www.ancestry.com Debbie. It's much easier if the person(s) you are seeking dont have a common name, but I have never not found someone I was looking for using that site. | | | |

I agree with Captain Tom. Hire a PI. It's what they do for a living, and they're generally pretty good at it. | | | |

It is scary with Facebook and myspace. I can find anyone on there. Everyone puts there real name and you know all their personal business. I found some of my lost family members on there but yet decided not to comment due to the fact I wanted them to stay lost. lol | | | |

Surprised that no one has mentioned, just using google to search. I have found couple of Navy buddies that I hadnt seen in years through just searching for their names
