Military Chat

Thanks so much to you all.... you have opened up a few avenues.
I have tried to trace the lady on the RAF site with no success, I guess the timeline. Also traced two from the Hanberger family in the past 18 months but they had little knowledge of him and thought they were too distantly related. It is understandable as they are a large family and it all happened 70 years ago. My cousin was one of the crew and I have much information that I would very much like to pass on of the young airmen.
Thanks again.
Susan.

Hannah married Mr Blake in West Ham in 1934.
Her death

Name: Hannah Amelia Blake
Birth Date: 14 Apr 1915
Date of Registration: May 2006
Age at Death: 91
Registration district: Enfield
Inferred County: Middlesex
Volume: -1

Register Number: B54D

Entry Number: 049

A daughter born in 1935 - birth reg listed on http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

As there are several people of this name, without purchasing certs, its difficult to know if or who she married. It might possibly be a Mr West in 1956. Again, the surname is rather common

Search all members trees - there are a number of members who list
Hannah,
Albert,
Louis (quoting the birth address rather than just reg district)
Peter
Jeanette - only one member has her name.

Send a message to the tree owners, especially those with Louis' address, and the person who has Jeanette (one 'N')

Jeannette died as an infant,

a site tree search may show decendants of his siblings as posted above.

His birth, and that of his siblings?

Looking for a relative of Sgt Peter Frederick Hanberger 1923- 1943. 15 Squadron. His Stirling BK782 -LS/X was shot down near Houten, all seven crew are buried in Amersfoort Holland.. The village near the crash site have planned a memorial to honour the crew in May 2015. Relatives of six crew members have been found but finding a relative of Peter is proving difficult so if anyone can help with any information it really would be appreciated.
Susan.
