Re: Erwin Kraus - POW in England in WWII

<HTML>Ted,

I received additional information regarding POW camps located near places called St. Leonard's Farm in England. Provided below are the names and numbers of the POW camps.

1) Hartwell Dog Track in Aylesbury (camp 36),
2) Merley Park Camp in Wimborne Minster, near Bournemouth (camp 1021), and
3) Normanhurst Court, Battle in East Sussex (Camp 145)

According to my source, each of the camps shown above are located in the following areas:

1) In the County of Buckinghamshire near Aylesbury,
2) In Dorset near Bournemouth, and
3) In East Sussex near Hastings

Unfortunately, I do not know the exact camp number where my grandfather stayed. Therefore, it is highly likely that he didn't stay at any of the camps shown above. Also, I have not heard back yet from my other sources as they will take a few months to respond (but are expected to yield very indepth information). Hopefully, the camp numbers I've provided above will produce some information. Thanks again for assisting my family in this matter.

Sincerely,

Ray</HTML>
