I am searching for information on a Marie Bilquin formally Deukaert. She was born near Liege, c.1885, was the youngest of 13 children and lived on farm. She left Belguim to work in Paris and then left France around 1916. She is said to have survived the torpedo attack on the cuise liner Sussex in March 1916 during WWI. She arrived in London and had a family with Charlie Lantin. We have birth or family records. She spoke only French and Wellong and didn't talk to many people about the past.
