Charles Roy Bush

[king william]

Charles Roy Bush was born in 1918 in Wellington and died in a plane crash in 1948, he was a W.W.2 hero, he worked in insurance before the war.
Does anyone know who his parents were and also if he married and had children.
If anyone has a way of finding the information before sending for a certificate that would be great.

Have posted above link for those wanting to read more on Charles Bush.
I wonder whether the site above may have some family details?

Other suggestions:
Newspaper lookup, likely he would have had an obit, otherwise death notices
Probate lookup at wellington archives. Military records.

Hello, I just did a google search on Charles Roy Bush and came across your question.  He was my grandfather so I can let you know more information about him and our family if you are still interested.  What a fascinating thread of Internet conversation to stumble across!

This person has just popped up on a family research query regarding Rachel Ella Grace (nee BOUSFIELD). Do you have any information on her.
I have found out that she was born 1923 in Gisborne but now looking for her parents to put her on the right branch of my BOUSFIELD people.
She married Charles Roy BUSH maybe 1940's ( records that I cant access here yet due to time frame restrictions)
Can any lovely person out there help with any info.

Thank you
