jay dubaya Posted 4 February , 2007 Share Posted 4 February , 2007 Hi Hayley, goolge throws up lots of links to the RFC, I have found these 2 useful in to past http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Flying_Corps http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/FWWRFC.htm good luck in your quest.

John Gilinsky Posted 4 February , 2007 Share Posted 4 February , 2007 Try the National Archives web site in Ottawa, Ontario CANADA under Soldiers Data base (many of the RFC and RFC CANADA cadets served first in the infantry or other forces and then again many did not). Also consult if you can the first volume of the official history of the RCAF which covers WWI by S. Wise. If you give us more details once you pinpoint your man I might be able to help further.

APW Posted 4 February , 2007 Share Posted 4 February , 2007 Hayley There is a 2/Lt E H Brown mentioned in the August 1918 Air Force list who was a pilot, with a seniority date of 30 May 1918. That's all the information given. Do you have any other background information about his service? Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlight Posted 5 February , 2007 Share Posted 5 February , 2007 Hi, You could try the following links also. They are good for researching details of the CEF and also have a forum you could ask: http://www.cefresearch.com http://www.cefresearch.com/phpBB2/index.ph...61e184545cd6665 Regards Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlight Posted 6 February , 2007 Share Posted 6 February , 2007 Hi Hayley, I just looked up the Canadian Archives http://www.collectionscanada.ca/02/02010602_e.html and found an Edward Harold Brown (born 11/02/1897). This may be your man. I have attached a copy of the printout shown for him. Regards Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
