Hi Ann & Erik,

Happy New Year to you both

I would love to have any information you would share with me,  sadly I do not know of any photos of Robert TH Kearnes. I've asked my Grandad (Eric Kearnes) who was in the army at the same time, but as far I know they never met even though they share a family connection (& name).

I know a little about his parents but that is mostly family hearsay rather than facts.

Kind regards
Kae

You've reignited my family tree interest!

As you'll see in the thread back in 2004 I was told the cemetery Robert was buried in, some one has last year added a photo of the grave stones of all the crew.

Hi Erik,

This was unexpected! - so much so I thought the email reminder I received was a fraudulent attack! - reading this thread it all makes sense! - Thanks Carol & Sarah!

Regarding Robert Thomas Harden Kearnes - sadly I do not know of any photos, I but I will ask my grandfather (Eric Kearnes who will be 90 next years) if he has any photos or any information - my grandfather also was involved in WW2 - the medical corps, I wonder where he was at the time the plane was shot down? I must ask him.

I would appreciate any information you find, photos of the site etc. The idea of a commemoration plaque appeals to my sentimental side. Please keep do me informed.

 I will seek as much as I can find.

Kind regards
Kae
