I'm putting together a highschool reunion for graduates in 1956. There are 38 gals who I can't locate because I don't know their marriage names. Can anyone suggest a website where I could find this info? All I can supply are first and last names, year of birth (1938 or 1937), and residence at graduation time: Jersey City, NJ, Hudson County. I'm not looking for hard copies of anything or any details other than marriage names. I don't need a paysite that offers one year of unlimited searching at 39 or so dollars. In one day I can search all names easily. So a site that offers unlimited searching of a comprehensive marriage database for a day at $5-$10 would be ideal. I know about classmates.com and facebook.com. Thanks for your recommendations. Ray

Once in a blue moon you'll get very lucky and run across an obit on one of the woman's parents which may list her married name (and often her location) in among the survivors. Only really worth doing if the name is unusual. Assume you've also looked for them on the Social Security Death Index - that may hone down your list a bit. Nancy T
