1964 - Mortimer Road, Buntingsdale Park, Market Drayton.
I lived briefly in Mortimer Road as a toddler with my parents and older brother. My father was a Flight Lieutenant stationed at RAF Tern Hill from sometime between late 1962 or 1963. On March 25th, 1964, he was instructing a trainee helicopter pilot. One of the helicopter's rotor blades failed and it crashed to the ground killing my father and the pilot. He is buried in a little graveyard near to a river, which I have visited only twice and not for around 20 years. I would like to visit again soon and wonder if anyone has any information about any of these places or the event itself. As a child of 2 I have no conscious memory of my Dad and little by way of information about his time in Market Drayton. When I visited in the 80's, Mortimer Road was still there but I think it has been replaced with a new development. Any information would be very welcome.Leila

Fulham county was my Secondary School from 1961 to 1966. I was in Stuart house- blue colour. I remember Mrs Barton who taught Latin, Miss Twig who taught Maths. Mrs Brown who taught music and Miss Clarkson the headmistress who was quite a charecter
