If I have an address in a city and want to know who is now living there (hopefully relatives), is there a site where I can enter this address and get the person's name? I know there are sites by name, and phone number but is there a way to get it with an address. Thanks. Ellie

You may find telephone listings for Sriem, formerly Osztrák-Magyar Monarchia vármegyéi Horvát-Szlavónország (Croatia-Slavonia) Szerém) at the following link http://www.telekom.yu/ For older info you may post a query at: http://www.serbia-today.com/genealogy.html
I am presuming you want to know who is living at that address in that city in the USA now. I would go to the county tax office and look it up in the tax records, if they own the property it will be listed in the property tax assessment. If not there and they do not own the property go to the school, head, or other tax offices and ask to see the records. They are public records. I do not think the post office will give you much help officially. However a tete-a-tete with the local postman/woman/person (must be politically correct these days) may shed some light. Also a gracious and considerate letter to the "resident" at that address with a SASE might get you what you want. ray ----- Original Message ----- From: "SHAWN FOGARTY" <fogdryer@msn.com> To: <CROATIA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 11:31 PM Subject: Re: [CROATIA-L] Address Directory > ok, so I have a place of residence, Srem, Serbia. listed for a relative (Sertic) > arriving in 1919. ok so how do I find him back in Srem Serbia??????????? > > shawn > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Elaine Sharp > Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 3:40 PM > To: CROATIA-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [CROATIA-L] Address Directory > > I FORGOT TO SAY THAT THIS ADDRESS IS IN THE USA. > If I have an address in a city and want to know who is now living there > (hopefully relatives), is there a site where I can enter this address and > get the person's name?
