  'WHERE ARE THEY NOW' -  LIST OF MISSING 99TH - BOB STOREY, 11th September 2008

 

 

Alan Brooke

32 Alan Brookes on CDROM - written to all on the list, but no replies

 

 

David William Clegg

Too many David Cleggs on the CDROM - Letter sent via RAF Innsworth

 

but no reply

 

Ken Bowker knew that he worked for CLIX in the 70s

 

From Paddy Parker (ex 98th) - 3/6/05 - He had contact with Dave in

 

Carlton, Nottingham around 1980. He had an Insurance Agency and is

 

believed to have stayed in the Nottingham area

 

I wrote to all David Cleggs in the Nottingham area, but had no replies.
Dave Clegg is running an insurance/finance advice business in the States, (southern states??)
at least until last September 2009- Tony Franklin.

 

 

Harold George Hubert Haines

Written to 6 addresses - no replies - sent letter via RAF Innsworth

 

without any reply.

 

From Allan Woodcock, February 2004 - His full name was Harold George

 

Hubert Haines. George used to live in Andover. I don't know where he

 

is now. Ken Williams may be of help as he also lived in Andover and

 

went to school with George.

 

 

Bruce Harold Hancock

Written to 5 addresses - no replies - letter sent via RAF Innsworth

 

without any reply.

 

 

David Christopher Clem Handley

Written and phoned various addresses without success. Letter sent via

 

RAF Innsworth without any replies - we've now given up on this one!

 

 Dave Handley was into radio control and model making. I'm sure he had his own business as it use to be advertised in the modelling (Aircraft) magazines. However this intel may be 20 years out of date like my two remaining brain cells. Tim Wyatt April 2009

   

David James Hookway

Written to all addresses on CDROM - no replies. Sent letter via

 

RAF Innsworth without any replies

 

From Bob Lythaby in March 2008 - Dave Hookway was born in the

 

Barnstaple area of Devon. He was last seen towards the end of his

 

service , as a Chief Tech at RIU Henlow around the mid 80's

 

Dave Hookways' name was one of the names I submitted to the

 

Service Pensions Agency and they had no contact address for him - so, a

 

bit of a conundrum here, as they would have had his address if he was

 

drawing a Service Pension as a 22 year Chief Tech!

 

 

Paul George Hotchkiss

Written to all addresses on CDROM - no replies. Sent letter via

 

RAF Innsworth without any replies

 

From Mel Dexter - Paul Hotchkiss came from Wallasey. Gareth Turner

 

corrects this slightly - it was Moreton on the Wirral - Gareth has checked

 

local sources without success

 

Recently spotted on Friends and Family website.

 

 

Richard Alfred 'Richie' Hoyle

Written to 8 Richard A Hoyles' - no replies - Letter sent via RAF Innsworth

From Mel Dexter - I saw Richie in Gan in 1972, he was passing through

 

as Sergeant Aircrew on Shackletons

 

From Phil Sharman (9/2004) - I last saw Richie in the 1970s' and I'm sure

 

he was 'Kipper Fleet'

 

From Martin Thompson (10/2004) - Last time I saw Richie was with me at

 

Ballykelly, Northern Ireland on Shackletons, 1970 - we were Aircrew

 

together - He came to my wedding.

 

 

Joseph William Jordan

I received notification from Peter at the Services Pension Agency that

 

2 letters I sent to be forwarded on to Joe (March 08 and June 08) had

 

been sent off to him - but so far Joe has failed to respond, and I have to

 

deduce from his silence that he wishes to stay out of contact!

 

 

Anthony Joseph McDonnell

Written to various addresses in North of England - no replies.

 

Letter sent via RAF Innsworth without any reply. I last saw him at RAF

 

Finningley after Pass Out.

without any reply - his ex wife lives in Weston Super Mare.

 

From Mel Dexter - John Osborne came from Coventry. His address way

 

back in 1963 was 18 Arnold Avenue Coventry.

 

I wrote to 18 Arnold Avenue Coventry and various addresses in the

 

Coventry area without any success.

on Survey ships in the early 80s but they had no knowledge of his present

 

whereabouts.

 

From Phil Sharman - Dave Turner joined Decca and I last saw him at

 

Lyneham on a contract in the early 1970s

 

 

David Charles Warren

I received notification from Peter at the Services Pension Agency that

 

2 letters I had sent to be forwarded on to David (March 08 and June 08)

 

had been sent off to him, but so far David has failed to respond, and I have

 

to deduce from his silence that he wishes to stay out of contact!

 

 

John Anthony Whitehouse

I have sent letters to addresses in the Leicester area for Tony and his son

 

(Sean) but without any response. I sent a letter via RAF Innsworth and

 

failed to get a response.

1 boy, Sean. Tony left the RAF from Patrington in 1975 and joined Marconi

AND NOT FORGETTING THE PEOPLE WHO LEFT US EARLY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO :-

Trevor Boardman

CJ (Taff) Davis

 

Paddy Drummond

 

John Etherington

 

Dave Gilbert

 

Robert (Bob) W. Owens

He was traced by Tony Lindon (100th Entry Webmaster) to the Netherlands

 

I have phoned Bob twice and spoken to him - he said that he would contact

 

the 99th Website, but so far he has failed to make contact. I assume from

 

his reluctance to make contact that he wishes to stay out of touch!

Dave Potts

 

Terbraak

 

Barry Michael Trim

 

Alan Wilson

From Richard Sumser - Alan Wilson (687600) was commonly known as

 

 'Hot Pot' as he came from Lancashire

 

From Ken Bowker - who saw him after his discharge in Colne Lancashire

 

Alan was medically discharged soon after the Summer Camp on Dartmoor

 

in 1962. I last saw him to speak to in 1964 in Weston just before the Pass

 

Out parade.
