Gabriele Russo
I would love to know more about my great-grandfather, who is said to have made fortune three times to lose it three times (the family legend even says he invented Marmite-which might explain why he was exiled from his village and had to live in England for many years).
He was a German living in Silesia (which is now part of Poland), and at the end of the Second World War, fearing the Russian invasion, he sent my grandfather and his family away to the west. He chose to remain to protect the family estate and was never heard from again.
