Wife and child of 5689 sgt J R Kay(it could be Hay) 1st East Lancs rgt British Prisoner of War Jennelager? 2rd Old English Camp via Paderlr--- could any of you history buffs out there help me out as I am trying to trace the connection between my mother in law and this photo.She came from Ripon but used to stay with relatives in Lancashire |

There is a Joseph KAY in the East Lancs, on the Clayton le Moors R-O-H at 79 Barnes St. No proof yet, if they are the same man. There was a list in the A.O. & T., of returning P.O.W.'s, in January 1919 his name is not amongst them. Have you a picture of him that you could post on the list. Are you sure its Jennelager and not Sennelager. Retlaw. Last edited by Retlaw; 29-05-2009 at 22:36. |

Re: Sgt J R kay
Your Paderlr_ _ _ is probably Paderborn which is a town in Germany. Sennelager is close to it.
