Hello.

Bit of an odd question I suppose.

A German trawler was captured in Feb 1940. The crew were Interned.

Where would they have been interned. Isle of Man?

Would they be treated differently to Military POWs?

Any way of tracking down names from ships?

Start your research here: http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.u ... r/C6206302

It means a personal visit to the National Archives or pay a researcher to do the work on your behalf.
