Hi I too would be interested in any databases/ newspapers for Japan. One of my great grandfathers daughters, a Picton Davies, apparently married a banker and lived in Japan. They were there before WW2 but never heard of again. I have made loads of attempts to find info but am told much of the BMDs were destroyed in the war. Many thanks Cathy N Devon Clark, Cox, Picton Davies Today's Topics: 1. MARRIAGES IN JAPAN 19TH C (Nicholas Wilson)
