Are these two, the only ones I've heard of, not complete or is the actual date of birth to the day important to you?

If necessary I can probably contact R.H. Rose's family to ask.

Actual day of birth, thanks Allan. It's never considered complete until I've got that

Karl-Ludwig Brandt was born on 08 March 1907 and died on 30 August 1990 (source).
Werner Laurenz was born in Coesfeld.
Georges Martin was born in 1930 near Fontainebleau (source).There is a man with this name who was born on 31 October 1930 (link) but I have no idea whether they are one and the same.
Jean-Philippe Mercier was born in 1964.

Ah, Reinhard - as always, a star.

 

Well, the fact that I was missing the Ludwig bit explaned why I found so little about him, which I thought was strange. Shame I can't find out where he died, although at least I now know he was born in Bremen.

 

Thanks for the rest, always appreciated - every little helps.
