James Anthony Emery Moore Mitchell
British Army Seaforth Highlanders
from:Saltburn, nr Invergordon
My great uncle, James Anthony Emery Moore Mitchell (known as Tony or Anthony, was born in 1906 and served with the Seaforths. He came from Saltburn, near Invergordon. He was a POW in Stalag XXB in Poland. The family has told me that he was captured at St Valery in June 1940 and marched 2,000 miles to coal barges(?) to the Polish/German border. Can anyone help me with information?
