What nationality is this?
« on: Tuesday 24 January 23 19:38 GMT (UK) »
How can I determine a nationality?  Sergio G. MIA was around in London in the 1960s to have married Patricia Elizabeth Ball, but after that I can find no trace.
Can anyone kindly assist?
Thanks
Stuart

Possibly too recent to show up in many available documents.

There is a Sergio Maia in Rochester in Kent in 2003 in the Electoral Registers. Different spelling of the surname and no middle initial, but possible?

Hi,

This man and his wife may still be alive, and we are not really supposed to discuss living people.

Although I will add that they had 3 children together in the 60s.

I presumed, which is my bad, that they may have been deceased as I have struggled to trace either from far away Australia, but I take your point.
