Wolff which took place in Grimsby in 1950. If you send for his marriage certificate it would give you his father's name and his age at marriage. This would help you to place him in 1950 and would cost £9.50. I also found this website for you which is absolutely Free to search. http://www.forcesreunited.org.uk/index.asp and if he was in the Dragoons in 1950 http://www.britains-smallwars.com/Canal/DRAGOONS.html The marriage certificate would tell you if he was in the Dragoons when he married. If you don't know how to get a certificate on-line let me know abnd I can give you an address. Good hunting, Judy Elkington Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
