as Rollo said ..............


it's amazing what you can find by simply using Google ....... either for the person's name or the geographical area.

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.
