Thanks Sue...and with father [Johan] George sounds a likely candidate.

Can you see a marriage or death for Rolan? 

My ISP has slowed my internet speed as I've exceeded my monthly allowance.  NSW bdm just sits when loading and can't bring up Ancestry's bdm's at all BUT rootschat still loads reasonably quickly :D.   Back to full speed midnight tonight.

Cheers

No, but there is a digitised WW1 service record for him.
Contains letters and addresses of interest.
He had his share of illness and hospital stays!

Without sighting a death it is only speculation that this is actually the daughter of Herman and Louisa SCHMIDT, but it may be-

So, Kerry, It seems you have Rolan well-mapped ;D

What were you wanting to find out about his father in particular (apart from what we have given to date)?
