I had hoped to find some information on Fold 3 as it is Free this weekend, but not having much luck. Please could I ask for help in finding information for William Smith he was a Private in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. I have found two newspaper articles stating William had been reported to be a prisoner of war. The first article dated 27/6/1940 states William's wife Lily had been officially notified Fusilier Private William Smith who had been serving in Norway was missing since 26/5/1940. The second article dated 12/9/1940 states Fusilier Private William Smith of 5 Jubilee Terrace Conway is reported to be a Prisoner of War in Germany. He was in C Company 6th Battalion Royal Welsh Fusiliers.
William's father Thomas Smith died 26/6/1943 & in his Obituary it mentions his son is a prisoner of war. I would be most grateful for any help in finding William's records.
