Peter, > Well first of all lets see if this is your man ? It wasn't unfortunately. Once I checked dates etc he turned out to be the son of the fellow I'm looking for. I will order that document though. The other fellow who turned up was another son who is my grandfather. Now if I can only find the parents somewhere. Thanks for your help.
