    Steve,

    I was up early this morning and managed to get the enquiry in. Thanks for the suggestion: we'll see what turns up. :)

    Duncan, At long last. apparently in the area of Dannenberg were several saw mills, even after the war.
    The name Schrllingsbruecken remains a mystery. The nearest would be Schnakenburg.
    Itan, I send you a link later on.



    I hope that helps, Motto: Never give up.
    Stefan.

    Oct 41 - Jan 42 Sugar beet factory Riesenberg
    Oct 43 - Jan 44 Sugar Beet factory Praust, Danzig

    Many thanks. I've applied for his IRC info and will get up to Kew as soon as I can. Hopefully he too has a questionnaire.

    Please double check, is it Riesenberg or Rieseberg?

    Hi Stefan, he wrote it as Riesenberg.

    Any help on the location of the other camps he worked in would be appreciated if you have the time.

    Hi-jack on the Forum, that is new.

    I do not seem to be able to enlarge your document too well. Please list all locations like Torn, Marienburg, Schwerin, etc. PM, if you prefer.
    Stefan.

    Hi Stefan, sorry but the PM (conversations) seem to function exactly the same as this area, so I can only attach the same picture in the same way (or as a pdf).

    I will add here as a pdf, maybe you can save that out of the message and view it?

    Thanks. Tim.
