Europe / Re: Gustav Paul HEISE My lost Great grandfather
« on: Tuesday 16 December 08 08:56 GMT (UK) »Hello Michael,
Have you tried searching for HEISE in the National Archives catalogue?
There is a file from 1933 regarding the re-admission to British nationality of Sarah Jane Heise of Birkenhead!!! Would make very interesting reading. It could mean that the yencountered problems during WWI if Gustav was not naturalized at the time.
Gustav's birth and baptism in Danzig (Gdansk) is also contained in the IGI on www.familysearch.org
It can be surprisingly difficult to research these 'recent' ancestors. My late father did not even know exactly when his grandfather had died.
You have a fascinating journey ahead of you.
