She left my little sister and I when we were very little. We saw her a few times while growing up, but most of the experiences ended in not such good ways. A lot of it is tied to the problem of her not being able to just tell us shes sorry for leaving.
We exchanged words about four years ago over that issue, and have not spoken since.
I want to find her because my grandmother - her mother is going to pass away and has been asking about her. None of her kids are here for her - and I doubt she even knows whats going on.
So I am asking for advice on how to go about doing this. I tried paying money for the more popular finding people sites, and mostly to no avail.

You can use this to trace her location even if she's changed her last name. You could look at the addresses in order to see if she moves in a specific direction that will allow you to close the area of your search. Try your local phone book for a private detective. They usually have acess to more resources than the average person.

If your grandmother is leaving a will that names your mother in anyway, the police or a lawyer will be much more willing to assist you in finding her. If nothing else, I'm sure these people would be far more qualuified to recommend professional searches then most people here.
