Hi Lorraine,

I'm trying to trace members of WW2 canadian aircrew that flew with a relative of mine. I've managed to make contact with 2 but I'm stuck now!
If you have a chance and are still happy to do so could you see if you can find anything out about this young man?

Charles Trask Beech
DoB 3.9.1923 DoD 17.6.1944. Was living in Scarborough Bluffs, Ontario when he signed up and his death record states that he was in the RCAF for 3 years and was born in the USA.


Parents
Francis/Frank Johnson Beech DoB 13.7.1887 Born in Cleethorpes and emigrated to Canada in 1917
Dorothy Trask Born 1900 in Butleigh, Somerset. Think she went to USA.

Anything you come across would be appreciated, was wondering whether he had any siblings really that may still be alive and potentially contactable.

Many thanks,

Nikki
