Hi All My friend Marco is searching for informaiton about the American PoWs, escapees from PG59 Servigliano, who were sheltered by his grandmother. One, who Marco only remembers as Bill, made a return visit in 1999. The full story can be seen here : A Haven in Smerillo Marco is kicking himself for losing the business card that Bill gave him at the time of his return visit. We know he was a Baptist minister, had his own funeral parlour, his wife was called Nadine and he had four children. By deduction from repatriation records, the most likely candidates are the two referred to above. Attached is a photo of Bill and Nadine on their return visit, and also that of Marco's grandmother who, despite being deparately poor and a widow with 6 children to support, took in these two Americans. Is there anyone with access to American records who might be able to help trace descendants of either of these two?
