Many, many thanck to Jim, Margaret and Sue for the very valuable info they have so kindly found for me. Without the help from such kind people I would be going round and round in ever decreasing circles, and would end up ***********

Thanks a million mates.

Information from UK passenger list which might help a search for her in America.

Her address prior to departure...
Nurses Home
North Middlesex Hospital
Silver Street
Edmonton
N.18

Dependant of Cpl Alfred H Frohna
ASN 36236091. USA Army
2640B North 10th Street
Milwaukee 6. Wisconsin.

So at least this shows which part of the USA she was heading for.
Departure date 29th March 1946 age 21 on the ship Holbrook.

I am trying to locate a friends aunt who went to the States as a GI bride.

If there is any American friends on this board or anyone who has access to the USA records I would very much appreciate your help.

Sadie Wilson married Alfred Frohna in Edmonton, London, in the spring of 1945.

I assume she went to the States about 1946.

I would like to know if there are any children of this marriage, as my friend has no knowledge other than the above.

Thanks in anticipation.

Kathlyn
