    "THE LOCATOR" stars TROY DUNN, who, in 1990, helped his own mother (who was adopted as a baby) locate her own biological family. That single event inspired Troy and his then-partner to build an organization that did one thing: help people reunite with long lost friends and family members. In the past 16 years, Troy and his team have assisted thousands of people worldwide in doing just that. It's estimated that more than 300 million people have personally witnessed one of Troy's reunions on national TV. Troy has personally appeared (many times) on virtually every network morning show and syndicated talk show in the U.S., and has also made many guest appearances on various BBC shows in the U.K.

    TroyTheLocator.com was launched to help more people in their pursuit of a long lost friend and family member. The Instant People Locator is the brain child of Troy and was created using one of the most in-depth and accurate data files available. Unlike other online people finder searches, Troy's Instant People Locator does not rely on outdated white pages for its data, but instead combines thousands of somewhat obscure record files into one massive data pool, which he then makes available to the public for more accurate Locate results.

    Additionally, while his constant TV work now keeps him from maintaining his private investigator license, he has brought on a select group of his favorite private investigators from all over the country to do the Pro Locates for visitors to TroyTheLocator.com. These investigators have either been personally trained by Troy or have previously worked for Troy in a locating capacity.

    ""TroysList.ORG is a free, mutual consent registry for those wanting to be reunited with a long lost loved one. It's purpose is to provide a safe, no-cost environment for those in search (all 50 states and all of Canada's provinces are listed). Troy cautions all those searching to guard your personal information closely, being very careful where you post it and how much information you share with strangers. While there are many people and organizations willing and able to assist you, there are also too many who will prey upon you. Caution is advised as you proceed.

    If you want Troy's List to help you in your search you will need to submit your search information into Troy's List after you create a free account by clicking here.

    The form on this page is merely to submit your information to him, NOT to ask him to find someone.

    It is your request to have him contact you, so you can go on from there.

    The absolutely free reverse phone lookup sites generally provide the most basic of information such as name and it works only for landlines. To get further information, money will have to be paid. The free searches do not provide much more than what can be found through the phone book or personal knowledge and they only want your email to send spam.

    Stay away from shady reverse phone lookup sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse phone lookup site like http://www.phonedetective.link/ that has been around since 1999.

    If I recall correctly they have two options:

    1. $14 and you get only one report.

    2. $39 and you get unlimited reports. I went with this option because I wanted to verify more numbers. This is how I caught my girlfriend cheating, I got the name, other phone number, address history, relatives, and criminal-court records.

    Oh, crud...yeah, the mom was VERY southern...and she was alone with five kids or something. The girl would sit there and talk in that southern accent about what she had learned. Okay, so now.... I can't think of it. It was a good show, too. Yep, Torkelsons...that's it. Good question...
