| Seeking: | Duncan Liddle | |
| Location: | No Regional Information : No Town Information | |
| Message: | Hi, i'm from the Netherlands and i'm searching Duncan Liddle. Duncan was in The Netherland in 1997 with the Royal Air Force, there is someone looking for him here in Leeuwarden, Friesland, The Netherlands. A friend of mine (ellen) wrote with him in 1997. He visited Leeuwarden with the Royal Airforce. I know he lived in Darlington Durham at that time on 30 stonehaven way. His birthday is probably 01-08-1970, but she doesn't know this for sure. Can anyone help me to find Duncan Liddle? I don't know if he is still working at the RAF, he could moved back to Scotland. Anyone? please send me an email. Gr. Brenda | |

| Seeking: | Brian Hall
)
|
|
| Location: | No Regional Information : No Town Information | |
| Message: | Hi. I'm earnestly searching for BRIAN HALL, I don't have much information except that he was stationed at RAF Wegberg in 1965 and I'm guessing he would now be in his late 60s. He's my biological father and, although we never met, he knew mum was pregnant with me before she moved back to England and did offer to support her but other circumstances took over. I really don't want to intrude or upset anyone but I would really like to know a little bit of history about the other half of me. I'll be 40 this year and I'm starting to fear that time may be running out. I've attached a photo of Brian from Wegberg, July 1965 - do you recognise him? Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and good luck with your own search. Debs. | |
