I received shares of a growth stock fund when I graduated college in 1979. The capital gains and distributions were reinvested into the fund. All the statements from this period have been lost. I consolidated my investments which included moving the fund to a different financial company in 2011. I contacted the original holder of the fund and was told since I no longer have an account, they could not provide any detail of my prior holding there. Last year some of this stock was sold by the group where the fund is now held so I need to report a cost bias and purchase date for the sale on my income tax. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
