Hi everyone
I am not sure if my thread will be allowed as it does involve a living person, but this is my last hope of trying to find out what happened to my Maternal Grandfather Roland Russell. No one seems to know what happened to him, my mother was born in 1914 and she did not know anything about her father, if she did she never told me, she always says that he was killed in the First World War, I have done extensive research to see if I could find any record of this but with no success. My maternal Grandmother remarried. I know that Roland had a brother called Harold born 1882 and a sister Evelyn born 1886 and Roland was born 1889, I have discovered that Harold had a daughter {living name removed} born 1947 and just wondered if I could find out if she married and if so what her married name was, maybe she would have some information on Roland.
I have called on this forum and other forums for help in finding what happened to Roland but I seem to have hit a brick wall, if he was killed in the war, not all records survived, so maybe that is the answer, maybe he did not go to war at all, but just left!!!
It is one piece of a jigsaw that I cannot solve.

EDITED to remove living name. Anyone who thinks they're likely to be able to help can send a PM to pick up the final details. ~ Christine
