DAVID JACKSON RASC ITALY 1944/45
On behalf of a friend I am seeking information on David Jackson. He was a serving soldier in the RASC in 1944/45 near the towns of Grizzana and Monzuno Italy. His last known address was 16 New Place, Tranton Rd, Bermondsey, London. We believe he had two brothers and their photo's appeared Carluke Gazette with him with motor bikes. We think he came from that area and the Bermondsey address was only a temporary one. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Best wishes
George Woodworth

Try GenesReunited especially if you have the brothers names.

Hi Sancti,
We are in the process of doing that, thought it was a good idea to put it on the site as we had little information.

Best wishes

Sir,
I have come across the photos you have posted.  I have emailed a copy to a  cousin in England to see if this is our David Jackson.  Our family is from Lanarkshire, in Carluke.  David was in England just before going off to Europe in the war.  He visited with my Mom and their Aunt and family in Stotfold, and my Grandfather in or near London.  I need to see if I can enlarge the photo a closer look.
Why is this friend looking for David?
