Fritz Weigmann.
I was given some letters and cards belonging to my late uncle (Arthur Michael). He was a smallholder, living at 'Oakfield', next to Pencoed Castle, Llanmartin during WW11. A Fritz Wiegmann must have been working on my uncle's smallholding during his stay at Llanmartin POW camp because there were a number of postcards and letters sent to Arthur after Fritz's repatriation. His address in 1948-49 was Bielefeld, Bleichstrasse 94.
The only Fritz Wiegmann I can find details for was on the U193 which went missing in the Bay of Biscay 1944 with all hands lost, so that cannot be him.
