Can someone tell me how to continue my search please, the following is what I have so far:
Living Relative 1938 London parents Stanley Wm. Howard 1909 & Jane Lewis. S.Wm. Howards father is Charles Gieseke 1865 London & G father is Carl Heinrich Andreas Giseke 1941 Germany.

I have tried searching London Non Conformist Registers 1694 - 1921 but don't really understand what these are and also German Casualties in the Franco-Prussian War 1870 - 1871 without success.

I've also searched Travel but can't understand the writing.

Can anyone throw some light for me please?

Not sure if this is the right family as my Charles was born 1865. His father was born 1841 but his name was Carl Heinrich Andreas Gieseke and his wifes name was Auguste Wilhelmina Louise Camin also born 1841. Also this is the first I knew of Mary Gieseke?
