IN the early 60s my friend went to California to work as a nanny, and although we kept in touch for many years, we gradually lost contact.

Her name was Margaret Sixsmith, she will now be about 56 years old. I seem to remember she had a younger brother, who I think was called David.

Efforts to trace any of Margaret's relatives via the phone book have failed miserably, Are there any relatives or friends in the area who could let me have Margaret's address?

We are visiting the U.S. later this year and I would love to be able to get in touch with Margaret and arrange a visit.

Can anyone help, please?
