Hello -

I am trying to locate my biological father. I have extremely limited knowledge of this man, and have only met him twice in my entire life. I am 33 years old and live in Washington state but was born in British Columbia, Canada. My mother doesn't have any of his old contact information and says that she was with him for several years. He is Sicilian, and his whole family immigrated to British Columbia but he lived also in Hawaii where he was married and had another daughter who is younger than me. I have names only... Santino Christaldi - not sure of the spelling but think that is correct. And the daughter's name is Bianca. He was quite a bit older than Mom; and she's currently 59. So I would venture a guess that this guy is in his 60's or even early 70's - hope he's still alive. We heard from him off and on throughout my teenage years but he never came around after I was 14 or so. I met his extended family that year in Richmond BC, he had Mother and I come to a family reunion. Anyhow, the last place I heard from him was in 1996, he was living in Bainbridge Island, WA. I got a letter from him trying to explain his disappearance from my life, which in my young tempermentality, I ripped up and threw out, not knowing I would want some kind of contact now. Paternity was never established but he as much as admitted everything. I just want to know about his family... I have a daughter now; and think they may want to know about her... plus I would like to know about hereditary health issues, etc.. .

Anything anyone can tell me or even pointing a direction I can go in would be much appreciated. I don't know how much luck I will have... its been a long time...

Thanks,
Jaime

This maybe of assistance to you.

Santino Cristaldi: (age 68)

Oh my GOD... you found him that quickly... I CANNOT believe it... I searched the white pages without any luck?? Anyway... BLESS YOU!! I will let you know if it is the correct guy & again, thank you for what you've provided here!

You had the vital information needed. Also, fortunately, he resided at the same location for a number of years. Let us know how things work out for you.

I tried the yellow pages to see if I could find any additional information on him but it did not return anything. I am glad Gem was able to help you so quickly though, best of luck in your search.
