I am trying to find out if there were any German POWs in the Flookburgh
area in 1918. My family lived there around Flookbough and Cartmel. They worked on farms and in the gunpowder makers. My father was
born in Preston, Lancs and he told me his father was a German POW. I
have a copy of his birth certificate and he was named Joseph Festubert
Hartley, born 17.9.1919. I have a 1901 census and the Hartley family
lived in Flookbough at that time but I don't know when they moved to
Preston. Thank you
