Hello, Alexander Bliedung might
be a relative of myself. Do you have some information
about his birth date and place in Germany. I would expect
that grand father Alexander Bliedung was born close in
or around Osterode (Harz). May be I can help w/ the photo.
Best regards from Germany Horst Bliedung |
