I think you should try a new post simply asking for a lookup in Toronto newspapers for a death notice or obituary for Frederick Kearton Crosbie-Choppin.  The search for an airplane crash only muddies the water.

Hi, I've got three scenarios here:

I found a Jessie Choppin living in Renfrew, Ontario in 1962. Would this be the one with maiden name Thomson?
I have a Jessie Choppin on my family tree who had two daughters, Caroline Elizabeth (1857-1923) and Eleanor Kay (b. April 14 1860), all of St. Vincent. Not sure if Choppin was Jessie's maiden name or married name. But the name Jessie sure was popular back then. Would it have been short for Jessica?
I'm trying to determine if/how the Jessie in Renfrew (and Pembroke earlier on) is related to Gerald Hampden Choppin. When he and his young family emigrated to the U.S. in 1949, their last known relative was noted as Jessie Choppin of Pembroke, ON. She was the aunt of Gerald. Not sure if this is the same Jessie you're researching, but if it is, can you please let me know.

Thanks,
Cheryl

A link for an aviation website that gives aircraft that have crashed worldwide. 12 passengers or over. Not normally military aircraft at war.
