Unfortunately I don't think you can, unless he's in your tree. One thing you could do tho, is to add him, then post a message, then delete him. I think I've heard about other people resorting to this. Rachel

Im not sure but maybe on your tree you could just put his first initial and then 0000S for his christian name and elaborate more on the actual name on the trying to find message. Im not 100% sure that this will work but its maybe worth a try?..
