So if I was looking for Shruti Shukla, googling, asking classmates, asking
other people - no one had a clue. (Chances are she moved with her husband to
some place, lost touch with her friends.) Phone numbers change over 15
years, so do addresses.

This is the kind of thing that class email lists [1] are good at solving. And yes, social networking sites too. I recognise that your class may predate these conveniences, but contacts tend to accrete over time, so starting a list with 4-5 addresses might well grow quite quickly. At least, so I've found.
