What about the electoral roll? There are some people on here who have recent electoral roll discs who you could ask. Janice

Have you posted on the Trying to Find board too? People browsing for FLINT surname may come across your message there. Maybe the newspaper local to her last known area have a ....Where are they now??... page. Several areas do this now. Gwyn

There's a website called 192(.)com that has the electoral roll. You can either subscribe, or get free access by keying in answers to promotional questionnaires or competitions. The only thing is, it takes a few days for the points you've earned to be credited so it depends how patient you are!

Umm...you could try a search for free on www.b4usearch(.)co(.)uk or how about an ad in a local paper? Good Luck, Jacquie
