My brotherMy brother in law worked in demolition and found some very old documents that contain two people's names and dates.Health records and other pictures. I believe I found the original owners on your site. How can I post or contact them to see if they're the owners of these pictures? And records, because they are historical and no doubt they would like to have them back.

    Hi @cherylmorrison2. I think that's a wonderful thing to try to return those documents to family.

    To start, use the search page and enter their birth years, location, etc.

    If you find a match, note if there are any contributors on the profile. Their names/contact IDs will be next to data on the vitals section, or under the Latest Changes box. Just click their name/contact ID and then click the chat button. Not every contributor is related, however, so always ask first. Also consider that a response might take some time and some people may not reply at all.

    If none of the contributors are related or reply, let us know a few more details, like the years and city in California, so we can help you search. You may also want to post again in the Western States Research group for their expertise in that state.
