Dear List I am trying to find information about Laz Pura whose name has come up in my grandmother's correspondence. I have done some internet searching and found he was a Russian living in Sydney and a bespoke tailor. He was a nature lover and bush walker and died in 1949 on a mountain in Tasmania. Any additional details or suggestions would be appreciated. Philippa Scarlett

Philippa There is a DA Pura, currently living in Cammeray in Sydney, listed in the online white pages phone directory. Have you tried a free search of the online NSW BDM Index?
