Add my storyBiography contributed by Swanna Hughes
Bruce married my grandmother Janet Christina Jones. They had one child Hamlet Bruce Edward Waldeck and remained married only about two years. He remarried Alice Caroline McCarthy in 1949 after he was discharged from the Army. He never had any more children so my father was an only child.
I don't know much about his life so not much more can be added.
