Shropshire's casualties and aircraft crashes

**thorne83** · 15th December 2008, 22:25

Hello all,

I have been working on a book for the last few years that will record the aircraft accidents and Air Force casualties that have occurred in Shropshire from 1917 (when the first incidents occurred) until the present day. It’s simply aimed at being a historical record for the future as I consider it to be an interesting part of our local history and one that will record the names of those that died so that they are not forgotten in the future.

My reason for posting this thread, is that I want to list all the men that were involved in these accidents, so that anyone ‘googling’ for information on a relative, or someone they are simply researching may come across this page and get in touch. I am particularly interested in getting photos of these airmen and women and general background bio’s on them. I would be interested to hear from anyone with even the smallest scraps of info. It all helps! I am particularly interested in hearing from relatives, but hopefully some of the board members will find names that they are interested in. To contact me please email me at tomthorne83ATyahooDOTcoDOTuk replacing the At’s and Dot’s with the obvious.

I shall try and break the names down into WW1, Interwar, WW2 and Post War periods and then under sub sections of those that were killed in crashes or died in Service and those that survived crashes. For those that survived accidents and for whom I have information on units they went on to serve with, or awards they later received, I shall include the information.
The ranks shown are those which were held at the time of their accidents. If commissioned later, I shall try and include their commissioned service number to help searches.

I hope the list is of use and hopefully it will encourage any relatives or researches to contact me.

Many thanks, Tom

For now I will post the First World War and Interwar names:

WW1 1917 and 1918.

Hi Tom F/O William John Boston Wadie (73050), RAFVR was my 1st cousin twice removed. I have recently begun researching my family tree so this is obviously of great interest to me. I was wondering if you had any more details on him/his death. All I have found so far is that he crashed just north of Bomere Heath flying a single engine aircraft (presumably a Hurricane or Spitfire), his wife and where he is buried. Beyond that I know nothing, especially where I might find these details out. With his young age at death although he was married I have a feeling he had no children but perhaps you've already been contacted by someone?

My email address is chailey at hotmail dot co dot uk and I am also on msn under the same address.

All the best, Ben

Hi Tom,

I've just discovered this interesting and sobering website. My cousin Patrick Boothman was killed on 1 August near Shawbury, and I have the accident report, inquest reports in newspapers etc. I even visited the site of the accident and met somebody who saw it happen.

If you'd like copies of what I have, email me directly off board, give me your address and I'll mail it to you.

What an amazing task you've taken on.

Martin

**John Williams** · 13th March 2009, 03:26

Hi Martin,

Could you also send me the address to jwilliams@ATeftel.com.au replace the AT with the usual as I am interested in a prang that occured night of 7/8/ Sept 1943 where a Wellington BJ621 crashed 3 miles SW of Bridgnorth killing all five on the aircraft.

Cheers,

John.
