Thank you Dizzi,

The Roll of Honour is at St John's, Newcastle in Down and Dromore. I contacted the church for more information ie. was she born or married there or is she buried there!! my reply from the Rector was that he would be happy to look it up but, would charge £12.00 an hour!!!

So back to the drawing board.

Thank you for your help

Thank you for your advice.

I did find a her name on a Roll of Honour at a Church in Newcastle, Down, maybe if I contact them they may hold a bit of information.


Best wishes

Records for WW2 personnel will still be with the MOD.

http://www.veterans-uk.info/service_records/service_records.html
They charge £30 and take many months to locate and send copies of any records as their priorities are the current service men and women

You can check if she is named on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site

Hi, I am trying to find some information on WAAF Heather Campbell Pearson who was killed during the war.

She lived in Newcastle, Down in Ireland .

Is there a website that I can lookup this information? I've tried Ancestry, Family Search.org and Findmypast without any luck.

Many thanks
