bryan777123   10 #59 Posted February 7, 2011 Hi Bob  Sorry, I thought you were talking about Verdun, the father. I assume you were talking about his son Verdun! Verdun the younger moved to Sellinge in Kent in the 1960's. That was the last time I saw him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
