....but will give it a try. Have very little information. Am trying to find death of Arthur Carter born 1913. have been told that Arthur died at the beginning of WW2 on a ship sunk in Suez Canal. Don't know what part of the forces he was in if any. Can anybody suggest where I should start to look? Thanks Jen |
