Ancestor search in USA - my children's grand, grandfather!

Is there anyone who has the name Thorleif Holm in his or her database?



Thorleif Holm immigrated to USA in 193n to build up a living before his wife
Anna Margrethe Holm (born Knigge) and his son Vagn Hartvig had to immigrate
too.



All letter communication stopped in 1939 and a search via Red Cross and
other Organizations was established just before and after the 2nd World War,
without other results than the information that his sister was killed in a
car accident near or in Chicago.



Thorleif Holm was declared dead or disappeared (without any documentation)
by the Danish authority.



Thorleif Holm was educated dairyman and he did run a small Dairy in a Town
called Tistrup in Denmark until he decided to immigrate.



5 long years without letters and other communication during the 2nd World
War was a long time for a man I his age (about 30-35 years old). - Denmark
was occupied by the German troops of Adolf Hitler April 9 -1940 and was
liberated May 5 -1945.



Maybe there is a chance that he at a time decided to found a new family in
USA, coursed by the circumstances not hearing anything from his wife in
Denmark - visa versa.



There are not many facts in the above description and all I know about him
is told to me many years ago by the mentioned persons in Denmark - both died
several years ago.



Thanks in advantage
