searching for lost wartime family history
looking for any details or relatives of lillian Brett we believe origially from Manchester but lived in Germany Berlin during world war 2.
We believe she was married to a German officer of the name of Stumpf(possibly a major)Lillian we believe may have been around 38 years old around 1945,lillian had a daughter(Karin) about 2 years old at end of 1945 who she left with an Auntie and Grandmother of her boyfriend and father of Karin his surname was Colb and was killed on the western front with his brother in 1944-5.
We would like to know what happened to Lillian Brett for completed family history we think she may have become involved with perhaps an American soldier as a picture we have of her with him and american army truck behind in foreground possibly soon after finnish of war. It is also possible that Lillian had one son,one daughter to other previous marriage so we are not sure if Brett is previous married name or maiden name one of these may have resided in New zealand and the son may have been killed or injured in motorcycle accident.
Thankyou
