Albert Flies to a New Life at 100: Mr. Albert Wedlake waved goodbye to Britain yesterday
Albert Flies to a New Life at 100: Mr. Albert Wedlake waved goodbye to Britain yesterday (Thursday 10-2-66) and flew to America to start a new life- at the age of 100. He is going to live in Detroit with his 66-year-old son, Mr. Jim Wedlake. Five relatives who flew to Britain for Mr. Wedlakees 100th birthday traveled back with him yesterday when he left by jet from London Airport. Mr. Wedlake, of Penzance, Cornwall, was a tailor. He has lived alone for 18 years. Until recently he walked five miles every day to keep fit. Mr. Wedlakes nephew, Mr. Austin Dredge, 66, said: " The doctors say he has the constitution of a man of seventy. His one concern is whether he will be able to renew his American visa when it expires in four years time". February 1966 P004691
