Short of hypnosis or truth drugs, I make the following suggestion:\n\nTake the white pages from a large city and slowly go through the various names.\n\nPerhaps, a Name will trigger your memory. Maybe.\n\nGood luck.

Here's a trick I've picked up over the years: Link your facts together.\n\nFor example, if you mention Thomas Jefferson, you think of the Declaration of Independence, Alexander Hamilton (his political rival), John Adams (they died on the same day), July 4th (date of death), Louisiana Purchase, the Barbary Wars (linked to Stephen Decatur and the Shores of Tripoli), Monticello, Virginia (his state of birth)...\n\nAnd of course, each link leads to other paths.\n\nAdditionally, remembering stories and anecdotes about people can really help you remember the pertinent facts about them.

I found a ton of old friends from high school 9 or 10 years ago on myspace.  It's free to join and there is a tab at the top that says search, just click it and type in their name.  Good Luck!

Try http://www.whowhere.com if your friend is from USA.\nOr try http://www.who-remembers-me.com if your friend is from UK. I'm not sure if there are databases for countries other than USA and UK that is as vast as the websites I've just given you.\n\nGood luck!

Maybe it depends on how old you are! If you are ten, you will remember what happened a few years before. But, if your thirty or forty, chances are you won't remember what happened on your tenth birthday, unless it was something really special...like getting a pony.\n\nI don't remember a lot of specific things from my childhood, but I have a specific memories of things that stood out. For example...my Dad wore false teeth and one day we were out fishing in a boat when he had a coughing fit. Low and behold his teeth jumped out, and we watched them disappear into the lake. We used to tease him that one day he would catch a fish wearing his false teeth.\n\nUsually the things I remember are things that were special, whether it was funny as in the above story, or sad, or traumatic in some way.
