    Default 2 * Ancestry Family Tree Lookup Please Aug and Sept 1931 deaths

    1)

    RAF Arman Henry Frederick BUCKETT 313645
    I think he Died in Scotland August 1931
    I believe there is family Tree on Ancestry - I don't suppose anyone can see it mentions a date, cause, rank etc
    He was aged 40 - so maybe quite senior

    2)

    Pilot Officer Gilbert Ernest Ogilvie BROWNE 2 FTS
    AFL says died 30th Sept 1931- He was involved in a Motor
    Cas accident Great North Road on 29th Sept
    But he may have died on Scene or in Cottage Hospital next day - I believe there is family Tree on Ancestry which might provide
    confirmation of date

    thanks Paul

    Henry Frederick BUCKETT - the Statutry Deaths Register on the Scotland's People website records that he died at 11.45 a.m. on August 22nd 1931 at the Military Hospital at Edinburgh (at the Castle maybe - it's not the best scan). Death due to heart failure, toxic myocarditis (6 weeks), chronic appendicitis ( 2 years) He died while under anaesthetic. His Rank or profession is Aerial (?) Rigger, R.A.F. (again, not the clearest scan, but that's what it looks like).

    Gilbert Ernest Ogilvie BROWNE - the accident was reported in the Bedfordshire Times and Independent of October 2nd 1931 and it records that Browne and P/O John Joseph Archer Ellison who was also injured in the crash were removed to the County Hospital. The car had collided with a stationary lorry.
    The driver of the car, which was owned by Ellison, was F/O Peter R. May, who was unhurt. Browne, who suffered head injuries and remained unconscious, died in hospital at 7.40 a.m. the next morning of his injuries.
    Browne was born on May 5th 1911 at Aguilas in Murcia, Spain.
    May was summoned in December 1931 for driving a car without a licence, having had it suspended for a year. He was fined £3.
