On T5890 - does it state where the crash happened? All we have is the date of 4 January 1941.

No location is given for the crash, but given his place of burial I suspect it won't have been far from Teversham.

Thanks Andy. Not now sure where the earlier accident details came from - but either erroneous or minor.
