Great uncle
Harold Golder was my father's uncle. We did not know him, but he and his two brothers, Leonard and Charles were serving their country in WW1 and all three returned home after the war.
Their sister Elizabeth Golder was married to my grandfather Fritz Kurz who was deported to Germany in 1919. Her British birth was doubted by Australian government at the time.
We would be interested in contacting any decendants of Harold, Leonard or Charles Golder.
