Help finding someone

[Landlord]

Hi all,

I know in the past PH has demonstrated an astonishing ability to find out information on people - ill-intended or otherwise.

I was wondering whether I could appeal to the sleuths for an honest, albeit sad, reason to find someone.

My nan passed away the weekend before last at the ripe old age of 97. For many years she was good friends with a neighbour (Frank). However, the passage of time meant that he moved away to the Forest of Dean and then again to be near his daughter in Bristol. Frank would be in his 80s now.

My granddad passed away just over 3.5 years ago which was when we last were able to contact him (I believe) but sadly not in time for him to attend the funeral (which I understand he was quite upset about). We would therefore like to make the very best effort to get in touch with him before my nan's funeral at the end of next week.

For the last couple of years of her life, my nan suffered with dementia so any chance of finding any address for him amongst her personal effects is close to zero.

So - I have his forename and surname, the name of the town he lived in before moving to Bristol. We also have his daughters full maiden name.

Does anyone think they might be able to work with that in the hope of finding an address? Or even the social media of his daughter or any grandchildren he may have?

I assume that the information I've mentioned would have to be shared via PM so please do let me know via PM if you think you could help. It would be most appreciated.

Assuming he is still alive, you could try looking into searching the Bristol electrol roll and hope he has not opted out. 192.com might be worth a try but not sure what it costs now for searches. Good luck though.

I have most of it (I think) - can you look something up in the Bristol phone book?

Thanks Vaud - looking at the person on Facebook you suggested, she looks a lot like her mum so it looks hopeful. We've messaged her - I'll let you know how that goes!
