Google is your friend, guys. I've been able to track down family member that I didn't even know existed!!
Although a lot of the 'people finder' sites want money, they often give you 'teasers' with names of relatives, several possible past addresses, etc. Using those, together with Google searches of the teaser info, I've connected with the children of my father's first cousins... never even knew they existed... connected with the cousin of my first wife, whom I lost contact with almost 40 years ago, and an assortment of childhood friends.
It's been fun hearing about their lives, and what they've been doing since we last met, but I realized that there was perhaps good reason why we didn't stay in contact all these years. Just not so much in common any longer.
