1. Start out by looking up the person's name on Google. You can also search the person's name in Google Images for pictures of the person and then run through some of the sites on Google for that person's name. If you know the person's email ,maybe that would help with finding them there. 2  Be persistent and patient. 3  Just when the search may seem futile, there may be a sudden link that takes you to the person you are seeking.
