Astrid should be around 62 years old.
Astrid has 2 children(boy and girl).

Phone them on 0151-709 7763 or e-mail -

Good luck,Steve.
Bumpedy bump!

However this Sunday I will be spending the day in Liverpool and I,ll take a trip to the church,maybe someone there will know Milly and Harry.
I also have an address of where they both lived many years ago so I will visit there and hopefully someone will remember them.
Im really appreciating this guys.
Thanks for the welcome ItsaZappathing:hug:

I will be visiting the church and surrounding areas this Sunday so hopefully I may find some information out.I also have an address of where Harry and Milly lived years ago so maybe something may turn up with some of the neighbours.
Im running out of options!!!
Many thanks for showing an interest you guys!!!
Hi Steve,
Ive posted 2 other posts(and this will be my third)but when I click to add it to the thread,it just comes back with something like i"t will be invisible untill the moderstors approve it",so Im taking a chance this will come on to the thread.
Ive been in contact with the church Steve and my phone number was passed on to someone who may (possibly) know Astrid,that was last week and Ive heard nothing since.
However Im venturing to the church tomorrow in the hope there may be some of the congregation who may remember Milly and Harry,if thats the case then maybe they will also know Astrid and where she is right now.
Tall order but its worth having a go at it Steve.
Arrr now I know where to click,its worked this time!!
Ha,well done,that happens sometimes!Again,good luck,there ain't that many, scandinavians!:celb (6):Quote:

Now does anyone know if The Liverpool Daily Post also has one of those sections in the paper that has "DEATHS.ANNIVERSAY MEMORIES.BIRTHDAY MEMORIES".
Im just thinking that it may be possible that the family put a notice of his death in the paper(the kind of post which says loving husband of.....,loving father of...., funeral to take place on ....etc,etc).
If this is the case then maybe the names of his family were mentioned in this notice.
So if possible,does anyone know if The Liverpool Post has one of these sections in their newspaper and if they do,is there any way possible that I could find that information on the internet for the date of Jun 17 2008(archives)??
Sorry if this sounds too confusing.
If you try Icliverpool,you will get local paper archives,but I think the obit's only go back 3/4 weeks,online!If not try contacting Liverpool Post&Echo, themselves on 0151 227 2000.
This is great advice from Steve for you Bernie...you KNOW David Charters wrote the article, so ring this number and see if David has a contact number for you...it`s well worth a try.....fingers crossed....(hopefully the church has helped you today)....allan:)Quote:

It looks like Milly and Harrys letters will finally be going to the place where they really belong.
So happy!!!!
S.A.,......I`m very happy for you...you deserve that contact after all your hard work...keep us posted on your meeting with Harry and Millys grandaughter...well done hun...allan:)
Is right Smiler....:handclap:
David Charters is on with Debz every wednesday on Radio Merseyside at 10pm. You could phone in and hopefully get to speak to him.
Hi ItsaZappathing!!,
David was the lovely man who added the orbituary into the paper but he left a good while ago but it was a lad called Nathan who took over his job that made the contact with the funeral director.
However I have been told David was well liked and respected by the paper.
The letters are winging their way to Liverpool right now and I feel a kinda sad and teary.
Must be my age!!
I've met David myself and he is a really nice chap and much respected.
Hope all goes well for you. I am sure there's some happiness in the letters to be had.
Be strong and good luck:PDT_Piratz_26:
