2nd Lt. Frederick James Livingstone from New Zealand is buried in our local cemetery here at Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. He was killed in a flying accident at Scampton on 12.1.18. I have his records from the NZ archives but am keen to find out more about him if possible. His nephew David Franklin Livingstone DFC from WWII is mentioned on one of your threads.

Many thanks for this Errol. I do already have this. Recently his headstone in our cemetery here has been changed to show the correct RFC badge. Originally it had a RAF badge. I was also sent some useful information by Canterbury Boys' High School.
