Does anyone have a site that could possibly search people databases out of Canada? I’m not looking for a white pages type of site but more on records, similar to fast people search.com

There are sites similar to fastpeoplesearch.com for Canada, but their scope and data availability are more limited due to stricter privacy laws. The most widely used free people search tools in Canada are:

• Canada411: A longstanding, widely-used tool for finding people’s addresses and phone numbers in Canada. You can search by name, city, and sometimes by phone number. However, the available information is more limited and focused on landline/residential contacts.
• Canada Finder: Allows you to search by name, city, province, or phone number. It aggregates public records, including addresses and phone numbers. The accuracy can vary, and it may include ads.
• WhitePages Canada and YellowPages Canada: Also offer people search features but are primarily known for business listings. Their people search results are limited and less comprehensive than in the US.
• Google and social media platforms: Many find information using Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc., though this requires manual searching and filtering.

Important to Note:

• Unlike the US, Canada has strong privacy protections; most people-finder websites will provide less detailed information (rarely more than name, address, and landline phone number) and often no information on criminal records, background checks, or extensive public records.
• There are no truly comprehensive, one-stop “background check” or deep people-search sites for Canada that are as broad as fastpeoplesearch.com in the US.

Thank you. Facebook is one of my bigger resources but it requires a city and state, which is complicated if you only have state

I am confident the records in #3 above are referring to the correct Marla Thomas. There are also marriage records on Ancestry confirming the maiden name and the newspaper article confirms the location. It is an odd case. I can find no indications to suggest any suspects, other than the lawsuit (and it seems a stretch to think that even as venal an organisation as Bunker Hill - as shown in the book linked - would resort to murder). What does puzzle me is that the family seem so silen

Anyone employed by them could have a motive, not just the bigwigs. For example, you go up to the Oil Sands and start talking about global warming and everyone now hates you, including entry-level grunts and affiliated businesses.

GUYS, HER REMAINS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED.

Do you have more information? A link to an article or press release, etc.?

 

[skyski]

Her remains were actually found near Maple Falls,WA. in November of 1978. Due to lack of funding, dna wasn’t able to be tested until now

I am her granddaughter and we were recently notified

Glad to hear, but sorry for your loss. I looked at this case a couple of months ago and noticed that there were not a lot of details. Did the family associate her disappearance with the lawsuit?

 

[skyski]

Thank you. Her husband claims that when she disappeared it “killed” the lawsuit. He threatened her on many different occasions with killing her if she ever tried to leave him. Lots of isolation from family and moving state to state… he was the suspect in her disappearance for many abusive reasons.

I am also so very sorry about your grandmother skyski. Were you able to find the records you were looking for in Canada?

This must be her entry in NamUs when she was found in Nov 1978. She was very young. My condolences to you and your family.

Yes that is her. My searching in Canada came up empty and yes, she was only 22.
