The Common Room / Konrad Emmanuel Wikman from Finland
« on: Friday 10 January 25 14:46 GMT (UK) »
Konrad Emmanuel Wikman was born in Finland on 13 Dec 1872 and died in Llangollen in 1958.
He married Gertrude Marion Rastall (nee Dennick) on 21 Dec 1918 in Pontfadog. Her first husband was KIA in WW1. Konrad is shown as a sailor on the marriage certificate and his father Edward Emmanuel Wikman (deceased) was a customs officer.
In 1939 Konrad and Gertrude are living in Llangollen and he is a labourer.
I have failed to find either of them on the 1921 census.
I would like to find out how and when he arrived in Britain and anything about his parents (possibly from Finland too).
Any help appreciated, as always.
Many thanks in advance

Cheshire / Nancy Iris Prestidge

Would anyone like to help me find Nancy Iris Prestidge please?
She was born in Northamptonshire on 12 Aug 1918 to Fred and Hannah.
In 1921 she was with her family in Bulford Camp Salisbury Plain
In 1939 she was living with her mother’s sister Alice Minshull and family at 18 Eaton Road Chester, working as a bar maid Waitress.
I cannot find what happened to her since then. I have tried many combinations of her surname.
Many thanks in advance
