Zeke Zeke: You didn't say how you think they are related, where they live, or how much you already know. Cheap and easy is always in the eye of the beholder. In some states, birth records are published online (free), listing the parents; you can search through mailing lists, home pages, published family trees online; you can request a Social Security Application (around $27) each; if they were born before the 1930 census, you can look at census records. You can order a birth certificate (fee). Why don't you provide more information about what you know, where they lived, and what is your idea of inexpensive and easy; you can receive a more specific response. Glee <gleemc@earthlink.net>
