Sheena Jane Report 23 Jul 2013 16:57

He was brought up in Gateshead and born in about 1909.
He travelled to North Borneo by ship in 1950, lived in Sandakan and was an engineer. Don't know which company he worked for.

Returned to England in the 60's and passed away in Gosport Hampshire in 1966.

He had a half sister called Pat married to Jack and they had one daughter called Joan, all living in the Gateshead area.

Can anyone help please?
