Look here:

This site lists all the places someone has lived. See if Livermore and Pleasanton appear in his profile.

Rose, I cannot remember when I spoke to him. Maybe early 2000? (He sounded really nice by the way!)
He lived in Pleasanton, California but the chap I have, died in Livermore California. Not far away from the place he lived when I spoke to him.
As he had a half brother and half sister I would have thought there would have been more about it. That's why I wonder if it is him or not. Sorry for rambling.

California death records are online here, there might be more info like mother's maiden name:

Edit: Oops, sorry, records only go up to 1997.

Ok Rose, is there a way I could keep this name between thee and me? Just in case I get "sued?"
I am 99% sure that this chap is my half brother.
HIS half sister won't speak or write to me now.

I did speak to him years ago, once, said he would write!
My natural father is my missing link.
I will finish now. don't want you to lose the will. :-)
Thanks.
anne.

I think I have a half brother in the USA. Last known in California.
I found a kind of death notice on the Internet, A man of the same name died, roughly the same age and roughly the same area.
Any idea please of how I can find out? Have looked up in the local newspapers from October 2011. Maybe not all. In fact, not all!
Any advice would be great.
Thank you.
anne.
