    Search tip

    If the person you were looking for is not listed, you may have searched too narrowly (that is, you may have provided too much information about the person). If the list of results is very long and contains many persons that are similar to yours, you can narrow your search by providing more information. If you still don’t find your person in the CTRP system, you can register it as a new one. For instructions, see  Creating New Person Records.
