Search using name, date of birth or previous address.

Our first advice search for them on Facebook. You might just find them, however if you send them a message then most likely they will not see it. First you have to add them as a friend then send them a message, or post on their wall. You could even comment on one of their posts so they see it.

if you can not find them then find friends or family of theirs on Facebook. Check their friend's list to see if the person you want to find is there.

Another option is to search 192.com. Just enter their name and see what you get. if you have an approx. age, place of residence or who they live with then you have a better chance of getting the match. To search with other occupants at the same address choose "advanced" then enter both names. This is a good option because you can search before you pay.
