Our speciality is tracing missing persons in all categories. Missing friends and family, will beneficiaries adopted children looking for parents and parents looking for adopted children. We have an excellent record in this field with successful traces from all over the world. Recently we traced a missing will beneficiary who was a homeless' gentleman of the road' his family had been searching for him for 6 years, we found him in 6 weeks! The BBC featured one of our cases when we traced two British soldiers who had saved two German women from being raped at the end of WW2.
