    Hey, Birgit Lucas. I have a bit of advice that will maybe help you find you grandfather. Go to http://www.Ancestry.com. If you know his name, type it in and click search. You’re bound to find out something on there. I found my great, great, great, great grandpa who fought in the Civil War on there. Anyway….good luck.
