Seems an awful little to go from, but perhaps you can check out these sites: They both contain useful links to books etc. about the subject. Good luck!

1. Have you looked at your mother's Birth Certificate? - it may have his name on it
2. Have you looked at the National Archives on line? - like;-  

Good Luck

I have already tried the birth certificate, but unfortunately that was of no help. I shall take a look at the links that you have both suggested and see where that leads me. Thank you Toni  

Have you tried the Ministry of Defence? Their records office (in Brown Street, Glasgow, I think) have a reputation for being very helpful. If they don't have the information, they may be able to put you in touch with their counterparts in the �������� Government. Good luck

There were a lot of camps where foreign nationals were held.  Presumably it would be near to where your grandmother lived?  If so you could find out from the local library exactly where it was and this would give you a bit of a lead to follow up elsewhere.  Also try on .  There is a lot of people on there, mainly US, but they are extremely knowledgable and very, very helpful! Good luck

If you type in pow camps uk into Google you'll get quite a few sites which may give you some leads. You could try this one for starters Good luck

Thank you Learning by Error, Joy and Annec.  I shall follow your suggestions up. I don't hold out too much hope with so little to go on, but at least I will have tried. As the saying goes "it is better to have tried and failed than to never have tried at all". Many thanks Toni
