George Leonard Nicholson (1926-1987) Medicine Hat
« on: Thursday 18 September 14 20:36 BST (UK) »
George Leonard Nicholson born 6 Feb 1926, location unknown, married Marjory C Horobin at the Embassy in Lima, Peru between Juil 1955 and Mar 1957. In 1957 they transhipped in Liverpool from Pero and on the Carinthian May 1957 to Montreal.
In Peru he was in 'oil' she was a comptometer (mechanical calculator) operator. I believ I have them in Medicine hat in the late 1960's on various voter lists.
I believe he died in 1987.

Can anyone add anything or hel me contact descendants - long lost cousins.

Thanks
