Many thanks for the additional detail.  So it looks like he never saw his daughter as he was captured three months before she was born and he died in captivity.  So sad.

According to Ladyhawk's reply #6, if you expand the Event Date the birth was registered in the period Oct 1944 to Dec 1944. So she was born anytime from 1 October to 31 December ( so maybe only a few weeks after his capture).
