Hello,
I am in search of relatives of P/O James Kennedy GRAINGER, Navigator in the Royal Air Force New Zealander (R.N.Z.A.F. 42295). He was in the crew of Stirling bomber BF513 piloted by Donald McCaskill. He was 21 when he was killed on 15 April 1943 when BF513 was shot down over Belgium and a commemorative ceremony will be organized in homage to the members of this crew May 8th, 2015.
His parents, William Kennedy Grainger and Ida Tomasina Grainger were Napier residents and at the time James was lost they lived at 207 Carlyle Street.. Napier. Ida Grainger died on September 23rd, 1964 at the age of 71. Her address at this time was 9 Nikau Street Napier. William Grainger died on January 15th, 1980 at the age of 82. His address at this time was 4/90 Gloucester Street Napier.
James Grainger had two sisters:Alison Mary GRAINGER and Brenda Josephine GRAINGER.
Many thanks
