P/O. Royston Percy Hampson

Royal Air Force 51 Squadron

from:Smethwic, Birmingham

(d.21st July 1945)

My Mother, Rita Janet Bartlett of Smethwick Birmingham, got married to Royston Percy Hamson in 1943. They were both 21 years old. He according to Mom used to fly Halifax bombers, I believe from Goule near Hull but I could be wrong. Mom got married to my dad Bernard Stanley Stanton in 1950 and had seven children, although she always loved her flight pilot predominantly.

I am trying to find out any information I can about Royston, who, having died so young, should be remembered. How did he die? What bombing raid did he participate in? What was his final mission? Any medals? Do you have any of Royston's family contacts? Please supply any info you may have.
