Title: Mick Corken
Post by: tumbleweed on Thursday 25 October 12 22:48 BST (UK)

I am looking for help on finding info. on a Michael( Mick)Corken who was a soldier in India in the late thirties. He was hoping to finish his career in the army before 1940. He was a friend of my parents and wrote from India and the last letter was dated 1938. I have a few of the letters and do not know who he is and my family members don't know either. I do not want these letters and 2 photos he sent and which mean nothing now to our family to just fade away. I want to find out who he is and try and find his family descendants and give them the letters.
He lived in Clydebank and had a granny in Northern Ireland . He was not married at that time. He had a sister named Ann. Any help or advice appreciated
