Your chance to play detective! 

Can you help Llandudno Rotary and the descendants of a grateful recipient of the kindness of one of our founders?

Mr. D Cule Lewis was a banker who was both a founder member and the very first Secretary of Llandudno Rotary in 1927

It appears that Mr Lewis’s other claim to fame is that he helped children escape from Nazi persecution

A Mr. Max Lykins has written to us stating

“D. Cule Lewis played an instrumental role in my grandmother’s escape from Austria in 1938. My family has some letters that Cule and my grandmother wrote to each other after the war, but beyond this, we don’t have any solid information about him. He was a founding member and Secretary of the Llandudno club. Any information you have and might be able to pass along regarding Cule would be greatly appreciated since my family is interested in reaching out to any descendants of his”

If anyone out there can help, write to rotaryllandudno@gmail.com and we’ll pass your information on to Mr. Lykins
