KEY POINTS:
The Salvation Army has released its annual list of "missing" people who are desperately sought by family members wanting to re-establish contact.
Salvation Army Family Tracing Service director Major Bronwyn McFarlane said the list of 74 names represented many of the army's toughest cases, as well as new
cases.
"We are appealing to the public to look carefully at the names on the list and contact us if they can offer leads on the whereabouts of any of the missing people," she said.
"The list includes some of our more difficult cases, where we are having real trouble locating the people. Any information, no matter how small, could help us to find a missing person and, where they are willing, to reunite them with their family."
Major McFarlane said the Family Tracing Service had registered 235 inquiries so far this year, a six-year high, from family members who want to re-establish broken family connections. Each year the service traces more than a hundred people.
