mother: Mabel Alice Neighbour (née nichols), died during or soon after birth of Stanley.

GEORGE WILLIAM RUGG        b 14 Mar 1923    bomber navigator
father:  William Alfred Rugg,    Lighterman, living in Senrab St, Stepney in 1923
mother: Edith Gladys Margaret Rugg (née Hammond)
brother: Cyril Alfred Rugg    export manager      b 28 Jul 1921    d 11 Aug 1995

Hi there

I am not a direct descendant but I am related to Frank Ronald Morton through his mother Lillian. Her sister was my great nan. Frank's brother has children but I am yet to track them down.

Kind regards

Gemma

Hi Gemma

Wow these old posts (11 years ago!!!) are still doing a good job - glad to hear from you.
A huge amount of research has been done since I posted that message in 2006 on the crew that Frank Morton was a part of and quite a number of crews.
I'll be very pleased to pass on what I know about Frank and his comrades if you wish.
I visited Frank's grave at Hirschland in 2004 and 2008.

Best regards

Mike
