Find a specific persons phone number or home address

2006-08-27 | By: A. Lundgren | Comment on this article

It's really easy to find anyone's address or phone number if you know the persons name and approximately where the persons live. There are plenty of free search engines to find people from all around the world and they are often free to use. In fact there are so many free services available that you should pay only in extreme cases, such as when you hire someone to find the one you are looking for because you couldn't find him or her yourself.


To find someone's phone number or address you need to know something about the person. If they got an unusual name you could probably find them by searching for their first and last name. But if they got a more common name or if you only know their first name or last name it gets a little trickier but not impossible.


All search terms we relate to in this article will be shown like this:


search term

You should be able to use that search term in any search engine. But if you want to be sure that it will work we recommend one of the following: Google, Yahoo! search or MSN search.




Find anyone using their first and/or last name

If you know the persons name you could use an ordinary phonebook search. These are available in most parts of the world and are free to use. To find one just search for something like this:


"find people" place

You have to change the word place to the city, state or country where the person you want to find lives. For example: "find people" canada or "find people" washington.


When you have done the search above in your favorite search engine you should get a lot of people search engines in the result lists. Choose one of them and do a search for the person you want to find. If you get a lot of results and don't know which one you are looking for you have to refine your search.


You could do so by adding the city your friend lives in or even the street him or her lives on. If you don't know exactly where they live it could be a little trickier and time consuming.


If you know the persons family situation you could go through the search results from the person search you did and search for that address or phone number. If you search for the address or phone number you should get the name of all adults living on that address. If you know which adults that live on that address it should be easy to rule out the faulty ones.



Find peoples address knowing their phone number

If you got the persons phone number it is really easy to find out where they live. You could use a phonebook search engine as described above. Or you could do a search like this to find one:


"find people by phone" country

And change country to the country you want to search for the person in. For example: "find people by phone" us.


And since phone numbers are unique you only have to do one search and can still be certain of finding the right person.


If you only got the phone number without the area code you have to specify the state or the equivalent of states if you want to find someone outside of the USA.



Find a persons phone number using their address

Just like when you have got the phone number it is really easy to find information about someone when you know where they live. You could find a people search engine using one of the techniques mentioned above or do a search like this:


"find people by address" country

And change the word country to the country you want to find the person in. For example: "find people by address" us.


When you do the search you should specify the street address and the state (or the equivalent of state). If you don't know the specific house number the person lives on, you may have to search for their name as well. Or search for only the street address and look trough the result list and try to find the person there.
