There are a lot of ways to do it, but the easiest is probably to use a Linq Method:
Assuming:

C#

public class MyClass
    {
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    }

Then:

C#

List<MyClass> list = new List<MyClass>();
...
var matching = list.Where(i => i.Id == 1);

You can use Linq for this.,
For example -

Suppose you have collection of Person data name as PersonData

C#

List<string> names = (from person in PersonData where person.PersonId == 1 select person.PersonName).ToList();

This will return the list of Person Name which id is 1.
Hope this will help you..
