I am searching for my half siblings from my father. I have never met him and have just recently been told I have many siblings from him. His name is Steve Pernicka, he was from Staten Island, NY. He now lives in Jeffersonville, Vermont. He has worked for the Red Cross. I was told there are many siblings, boys and girls.

I saw this is your second post on our lovely site and the folks who answer posts have offered you a lot of options between the two posts. A couple of things to add...it sounds like you are a point where you may need to hire a private investigator to help. You also may want to talk to a lawyer to protect yourself if you find your family and they start wanting things from you like money. It is also important for you to have someone...a trusted religious figure or if you can afford it, a therapist to help you through the process. I know from friends who have been in your shoes that this is a stressful and mentally exhausting situation. Self care is critical. You really need a team around you. Best wishes! Post back with updates. Prayers for you and your family!
You do not say how old you are (young?) or where you live but private investigator's fees can range from $50 to hundreds per hour according to where you live. Most likely, they will use some of the same search engines (more sophisticated) as everyone here is using.
Do you not wish to have contact with your father?
I doubt that you'll find all the relatives unless you start with one person as many of them will have different last names.
If there is some reason you do not wish to contact your father that cannot be resolved then you may never really be able to have very much contact with 'his' family.
Hopefully you are not in this alone and maybe other adults are helping you with this search as sometimes finding/contacting 'lost' family members is not a happy event.
This is your second posting with this question so did you not find anything helpful in March?

Hope all ends well with your search.
I entered his name and state on Zaba Search and this came up:
1) Steve Pernicka, Age 41
97 Cedar Ln, Jeffersonville, VT 05464-9321
2) Steve V Pernicka, Age 65
3) Steve V Pernicka, Age 65
8 Oak Cir A, Colchester, VT 05446
I don't know how current the info on Zaba Search is.
I hope the first one is the sibling you're looking for and good luck.
One of the easiest ways to find a person and not have to pay a company to send you the information is to go to Facebook and start searching there. Google search is also another great way to find a person. I did a quick Google Search and on Linkedin, I did find this person who fits the description of who you are looking for. www.linkedin.com/
He lives in Burlington, Vermont, and is the lead at the Red Cross. You can try sending him a message on Linkedin to see if he will talk with you and confirm this is your half brother or not.
I believe you should be able to contact the family from several sites listed below.
You may have to join an organization to review records.

I agree with the last emailer, a private investigator is the best way to go. This could go so many different ways on social media. The PI can keep your business private and you can decide with the info he/she brings to proceed with your search.
