Question

How can i find my granddad if i got his first name and nolt his last name?

Answer 1

Unless he was adopted, his last name would be the same as your Dad's or your mother's maiden name--whichever side of the family he is from. For example, my Dad's father had the last name of Johnson, and my Mom's father's last  name was Coston.

I have Johnsons on both sides of my family, too. My maternal grandmother was a Johnson, and she married a Coston (they were married for 63 years). Then my Mom--a Coston--marries a Johnson (my Dad).
