Looking for Robert McKinnon Thomson
« on: Thursday 14 June 12 18:21 BST (UK) »
Hi I am looking for anyone who might know a Robert McKinnon Thomson who was born in 1920/21. His mother was Christine McKinnon Thomson a worker at a biscuit factory in Glasgow. He is seen in a photograph at the Hess crash site in a post I did earlier. Any info on him or the family or about the photo would be much appreciated.

doozer was last active on this site back in 2012. If they haven't changed email address, though, they should get notification that someone has posted on this thread.

Hello David, I would certainly be happy to speak about this. If you could,  please contact me. I am reaching out on behalf of my father in law. A proud Scotsman who now resides in Canada.

Hi Doozer,

It is not permitted to add email addresses on RC as a Mod will remove it.

If David makes another post, just to acknowledge your reply, you will be able to use the PM system on the left side of the post.

This post shows how patience can pay off & how important info. such as names, dates & areas can attract potential enquirers.

Good luck after all those years of waiting  ;)
