Hello Tanya, thank you for your info., on Serge Swistchew. I think it must have been my father although he had not met my mother yet. I know all the info., about the ships he was on until the year 1955. I am hoping somehow someone might be able to find him from 1955 onwards. I really appreciate any info., on him and thank you once again. I cant think of any other ways to try and trace his whereabouts from 1955 except through his possible jobs on the ships. IT is a very unusal name and we have been looking for him a long time hoping someone might remember his name... best kind regards.. sonia
