F/O. John Wilson Hughes
Royal Air Force 107 Sqd.
from:Isleworth, Middlesex
(d.15th Oct 1944)
I am trying to find out more about John Wilson Hughes who served with 107 Squadron.
He was a Flying Officer (Navigator) in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve. His number was 154746 and he died on 15 Oct 1944, age 22. He is buried in Brookwood Military Cemetery (grave number 20. D. 17).
He was the son of Arthur George and Ethel Hilda Hughes, of Isleworth, Middlesex.
His girlfriend was Margaret Anne Hynard of Eynsford, Kent. Margaret Hynard is my mother and has just celebrated her 80th birthday. She would love to know more information about how John was killed and would also love to be in touch with any living relatives (John had a younger brother, but Margaret cannot remember his name) or colleagues from the RAF.
