Hi
        Afraid I do not know a lot
James was my grandfather.
Around 1935 he left his wife(my gran) At sometime he joined the army and served in Palistine and met a lady with whom he had two children.  He had a son  born 1942 Palistine
Sometime during ww2 James changed his name from Sommerville to Cameron
James was born 1903  Cookstown Northern Ireland and died 1969 aged 66 .As I cannot find a death cert in Belfast I am taking it he died in Kent as I have been told this is where the family lived
Iam not looking a big family reunion although it would be nice to be in touch
Its info on my grandfather I would like so I can pass on to my mum  ,as she never knew her father
