Wallace Lawrence Near Drowining Chesapeake Bay 1948 USA

Hi

I am looking for descendents of Mr and Mrs William Wallace of Norfolk, Virginia? Mrs Wallace was saved from drowning in 1948 by an Australian seaman of the name Elwyn Hepple. Elwyn's granddaughter is looking for relatives of the lady in question particularly any children of Mrs Wallace. There was also another lady involved and her name was Mrs George Farris.

Elwyn Hepple died as a result of his heroic efforts and a monument was erected in his honour at a cemetery in Norfolk Virginia. This was organised by the Civitan Society.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
