	Posted by Ron Cox on 09/13/2004 5:05pm I AM SEARCHING FOR JIM GOINGS /GOINS, HE IS MY PATERNAL GRANDFATHER. I GOT THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION FROM A GLYN BOX WHO SERVED WITH HIM. JIM SERVED AS A COOK IN THE OFFICERS MESS AT WILMSLOW ROAD, WITHINGTON, MANCHESTER DURING 1943-1945, ALONG WITH A FRIEND WHOSE NICKNAME WAS FRENCHIE. GLYN BELIEVED THAT JIM CAME FROM INDIANA AND DESCRIBED HIM AS BEING AROUND 6FT TALL AND SANDY COLOURED HAIR, HIS MOST OUTSTANDING FEATURE WAS THAT HIS EYES (BLUE) WERE CROSS-EYED. I HOPE THERE IS ENOUGH INFORMATION HERE TO POSSIBLY JOG SOMEONES MEMORY AND I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE - EVEN IF IT IS JUST ADVICE. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS MESSAGE.
