Marriage and Family
On 16 June 1931 Conrad married Maud Astrid, the youngest daughter of Col. Bo Tarrass-Walhberg, of Stockholm, A.D.C. to King Gustave II of Sweden. They were married in Paris, honeymooned in London and Austria, and then settled in Kitzbühel, Austria, where Conrad continued his work with the British Secret Service. The marriage produced a daughter, Christina Laetitia, and was dissolved in 1934. Conrad remarried on 1 May 1945, in London, England, to Rosalie Isabelle Baker, daughter of Ralph George Baker. They moved to Canada (see Fairholme Ranch) and had two sons, Rollo and John.
