Dear Sirs, I am looking for more information on a certain Frank Gerard Dawson who died 22. August 1985 in London. He was the father of the late Dr. J. Anthony Dawson; grandfather of Jennifer McLaughlin from Canada.

During the WW2 he was a Lieutenant and socalled Conducting Officer at SOE-N and before and after he worked at the Workers' Travel Association from London.

Who knows a bit more about him?

Regards,
