I am looking for information on where to search for my Cousin Mrs Lorraine McGill last heard of several years ago in Don Mills, Ontario, Canada.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry Rose,

Strange though it may seem, I have no information apart from the fact that her maiden name could possibly be Nelson. I did not know she existed until I received a letter from her about 10 years ago. I wrote to her but the letter came back marked "gone away".
Other members of my extended family have no knowledge of her.

I am clutching at straws!!

Is she a first cousin? That means she must be the daughter of an uncle or aunt.

This may sound crazy but I did not know of Lorraine's existence until a few years ago until after the death of 2 uncles and an Aunt who went to Canada from Scotland in the early 1900's. Lorraine is the Daughter of one of the Uncles.

I am trying to find out where to look to find out what happened to her.

Thanks for your help.
