How can I get a hold of my biological fathers family?

You're probably going to have to start with the aunt, your father's sister. Since you have her name, and she still lives near you she is probably your best avenue. Before you wonder who I am and what I could know about this, let me tell you. My mom married the man I consider my dad when I was four. He's the best dad I could have asked for and I have never considered him as less than my real dad. But, like you, I have a biological father and another family who share half of my DNA. There is something to that, that makes you curious about them and how they are like you and how they are different and even just practically what their health is like. Right? Have you tried social media? I am in contact with my biological family on facebook, and I love it because it's safe and a low level of commitment. I can keep up with them, talk to them and I don't have to worry about defining anything. More and more people are using it, so it might be the right place for you. You could send a message and feel things out before trying to meet them in person. Short of that your options are pretty limited. A directory might tell you her phone number and/or address, but I wouldn't just call or show up. A letter or an email first to see what she and her family think about meeting you would be a good idea. You're curious, and you have a right to be, absolutely. But the thing is you may not know or understand how they think of you. Tread lightly, and kindly, and good luck!
