Trying to trace family members of airmen and volunteers killed in a raid on an airfield in Yorkshire 12 may 1941. Before I go any further is anyone able to say how you would find family members without access to military records. Two of the men were george balmorth from county mayo and hector meeson. One of the descendants of an airman had notification of a new memorial and other descendants are sought.
