206338 Spr. Griffith Robert Griffiths British Army Royal Engineers from:Lowton I am trying disparately to find information about my Dad, Griffith Griffiths. I know very little other than he was captured at the beginning of World War II and spent the whole duration of the War in Stalag 8 B. Sadly my dad died of cancer at the age of 46, I was 17 months old at the time and unfortunately my Grandparents died before I was born and my mum died before I was really old enough to question her about what Dad might have said. All I know is that he had spoken of a long walk and that he made a tiny little ornamental vase of flowers out of some sort of bread. I don't know what his service number or who he served with and don't know where to begin to search either. All I have is a couple of photographs of him in uniform. I can send them if you think it might be helpful. Any help or advice would be so appreciated by myself and my 4 sisters.
Editor's Note:
POW records list G.R.Griffiths, army number 16073, as held in Stalag8b, he served with the Royal Engineers.
