position of "TO"
I need a help with the below sentences. Please tell me which one is grammaticaly correct.
"This is the name of the person to whom this letter needs to be sent or,
"This is the mame of the person whom this letter needs to be sent to"
I am still confused as to where to put TO, before the subject or at the end of thought.
Any help in clarifying my confusion is greatly appreciated.

To is a preposition, which isn't generally supposed to go at the end of a sentence. I would use the first one.
