I think there are similar sites for the US.

You can surely post a message that you are looking for someone. But unless that "someone" sees it, it really won't do any good...especially in this area.

Genealogists don't publish information about living individuals, for obvious privacy reasons, and in fact it is against the Y!Answers rules. You will probably get back some generic response like check "zabasearch" or something.

If someone made a post looking for YOU, would you appreciate someone just providing that information? Especially on an anonymous forum such as this. Who is searching? There is no way to tell. It could be some stalker you are dealing with, a creditor, an Ex you have no desire to have locate you, or who knows. The same would apply to you looking for another person. While you are probably legitimate, we have no way to know who is really behind scorpiogirl. Could be a nice, intelligent, person looking for a lost friend - or it could be Tony Soprano. There is no way to tell.

I am as lost as you. I, too, would like to find the family of a soldier killed in Viet Nam in 1968, to give them a plaque which was presented at a new Memorial in Chicago on Nov. 10, 07. I will be watching your answers, with hopes of help on where to start.
