Looking for lost fam historian in Seattle

Legg inn av Mandy Whitham » 13 feb 2007 08:28:06

Apologies to the list but I'm running out of useful ideas to help me solve
this problem.

I have a distant cousin living in Seattle - we are from the same MASSEY
stock and I've just come into some information that may make her very happy.


Trouble is, I have misplaced her postal address but wasn't concerned because
as of last year, she was on the internet. In May of last year I had a pc
crash and lost all my e-mail files/folders and addresses which of course
included Joan's.

Her name is Joan M Knizek. I've tried Googling for her and found only one
reference: Wing Luke Elementary School in Seattle - she was named in the
Wing Luke Technology Plan dated 2000 and so I was hoping someone at the
school may know how to get in touch with her. The school doesn't appear to
have an e-mail address (at least, not published as far as I can see) so I
tracked down a lady who organised evening classes etc at the school and
asked her.

She was obviously not best pleased at being used as Directory Enquiries and
told me to ring the school instead....all very well and good but she
obviously hadn't read that I live in Windermere, England and that Seattle is
16 hours in front of me - when they are in school, I'm hopefully comatose!!!

I've tried the on-line phone book for Seattle but can't find any entries
that either ring bells with me (no pun intended) or match her name!

Is there anyone on this list who is near to Seattle who could act as middle
man so to speak?

Getting frustratingly desperate, or is it desperately frustrated?

Suggestions:

1) rrite a letter to her as
"on Wing Luke Technology Plan, 2000"
at the school and marked "please forward";

2) an alarm clock (worked for me, though usually not at the first,
second or even third attempt).

When I googled her, this is one of the hits I got. A quick search on
directory assistance plus spits out the same address. Hopefully it's still
valid.
