Hello I am wondering if anyone can help me I am looking for my German born Great Great grandfather who was Rudolph Bischoff(Bishop) born around 1866. I was informed by the Red Cross that he was interned in Stobbs POW Camp May 1914 and they have no other infomation. I have read that civilians was then taken to Knockloe on the Isle of Man in 1916. I am not sure if he was one of them I have come to a dead end and have no idea what happened to him after Stobbs, not sure if he died or was put on a ship out of UK. I know he came to LIverpool from Berlin Germany and married my GG Granmother 1898 and had seven children my grandfather being one of them, My mum has only just found out that her grandfather was German as he was never spoken about by her father who was only eight years old when his father Rudolf was taken away. My mum is now 79 and is wanting to know as much about her grandfather as possible I have requested infomation from Kew Archive but have been informed that the text is not readable any infomation would be appriciated

I do have the marriage certificate and i do know he was staying in a boarding house in Pluto street, Liverpool this is where he met my gr grandmother as it was her mother who run the boarding house. I read on one of the roots chat that if i get in touch with the Red cross in Genever they might have him on record and this might tell me where in Berlin he was born. I have tried the 1901 census and i could not find any trace of them either.

Thank you. I know that on the 1911 census he had left the suger refinery and went to work as a shipping clerk, I will have a read of your link and hopefully it might lead me to other things

I have found out recently that my gr grandfather was from Berlin Germany, his name was Rudolph Bishcoff/Bishop. The last trace of him was on the 1911 census. I have been told that he was interned by some of the family the others say he went back to Germany before ww1 started. I have looked at all the passenger list with no trace and have tried the Kew Archives with no luck either, on his marriage certificate it say's he worked in a suger refinery in Liverpool, I don't know when he came to England, but he married my gr grandmother in 1898 and had seven children. I am now trying to find out if he went back to Germany and if he did, where in Germany did he live. I have only just become a member and the information on this site helps a lot.
