I am in need of a researcher willing to assist in searching for ANY information on both Andre Paule Zurkinden (daughter of) Andre Paul Zurkinden. She was my mothers eldest half-sister born May 5, 1914 in Tientsin, China supposedly after her father died. He was supposed to have been Swiss and worked in China as a Civil Engineer, building bridges. The only recorded reference I have is my Grandmothers marriage certificate in which it states Jeanne Henriette Morel nee Zurkinden. She was married to my Grandfather Ernest Henry Oliver Oct 20, 1915 in Tientsin, China supposedly after Zurkindens demise. I have no birth certificate of him or his daughter, no marriage certificate of him, no death certificate and I do not know what company he would have been employed with in China nor where he was buried. Would someone be able to assist me in sleuthing for any information for him or recommend someone who can? -- No person is your friend who demands your silence or denies your right to grow.-Alice Walker
