No success with Aussie records.....but found a website when browsing that gave me food for thought.....if John Wallace Wilson and his wife and children were still in Malaya when WW2 was on, I wonder if they did not manage to escape? Would anyone in the family have known?

I can't seem to find any information on records for civilians in this situation.

Forgot to put in the website.....

It makes interesting reading, and there is a page of links that may be of use.

Thanks for the link.

I've been trying to find a death cert for him in 1932 but I don't see it in the online Overseas deaths listings. 

Does anyone know where such a death registration would be, please  :-\

Hi Dee  :)

Thanks for that. I had been keeping my eye on that thread.  I'm so glad that we have someone like Shaun to help in this area.
