Thanks so much for that site - made very sad reading especially seeing the pictures.  Fischer. Gibbs and Wilcox are buried in Whittlesford Churchyard and there is some information in the church.  Jack Henson is buried in his home area of East Yorkshire.  Have also visited RAF Polebroke where the fatal flight left from.  Visited Shrepreth last year but couldnt identify the crash site.

Jack Henson was my uncle. My info says plane crashed with loss of all 5 crew members while on a routine training flight over Cambridge.  At about 13,000ft speed apparently fell away and aircraft stalled.Plane seen to come out of cloud in left hand spin, crew had donned parachutes, it appears order to jump never given suggesting pilot hoped to make a recovery.  It has been suggested they were doing high altitude testing. 

Am looking for information on death of George J Knox at Victoria Dock London.  Think on the ss Calabria
Not sure of date but about 1890 I think.  Have tried ships lists but no luck. 

Thanks - perhaps will be able to find on old drawings of the area.  Would be most interested in how the buildings were used as ancestor emigrated from Norway and it was his address for a few years,

Thanks rootschatters lots of really good links.  Will try local records first and then see where that leads.
