We're trying to locate a woman who registered with the Red Cross while
at the Austin Convention Center. Her relatives tried but failed to
reach
her there, and now they have no idea where she's gone. Is there a
phone
number they can call to find out where people went when the center
closed? Can you tell us who handled the apartment assignments as
long-term housing was lined up?
The woman's name is Ella Carvin-Jones. She registered with the Red
Cross at the Austin Convention Center on Sept. 5 and also registered a
search for her son, Bruce T. "Teddy" Jones on the same day, but she
gave
no phone number or email address for contacting her. If you could give
us some tips on how to trace Mrs. Carvin / Jones' steps after she left
the Convention Center, we would surely appreciate it.
Thank you!
Kay (I'm a volunteer. Flo, whom I've CCed on this email, is the key
searcher for Mrs. Carvin-Jones and her son.)
