Research MURRAY Family

[Trek06]

Hello, I research the family of sergeant Wireless Op. / Air Gunner MURRAY Alastair Gordon's (RAF) death  June 11, 1940 in FRANCE during WW2. He was originally from Bournemouth, Hampshire and was 19 years old.
Son of Alexander and William Gordon Murray of Murray Winifred May (nee Harrison).
Regiment / Service: Air Force Volunteer Reserve Royal Sqdn 21 crashed in Saint Aubin sur Scie near Dieppe. Service No: 759 321

Thank You very much.

There is no birth showing on freebmd for any Alastair or Gordon Murray born in 1919 or 1920 in Hampshire, or any Alastair G Murray anywhere (with or without mother's maiden name:

Are you sure he was from Bournemouth - or were his parents just living there at the time of his death?

Was his father Alexander William Gordon Murray?

Added:
This grave, so could have been born anywhere (Scotland?) and just livingin Bournemouth:

OK, this marriage for parents:
Marriages June quarter  1919 
Winifred M Harrison   Wolstanton    6b   315   
Alexander W G Murray     Wolstanton    6b   315

There is a birth for a Doreen Murray in 1920 in Wolstanton.

If you are trying to research the family you could get her birth certificate, and the parents' marriage certificate.

There is a birth for a Winifred Mary in Wolstanton, not Winifred May.   So for consideration:

Births September quarter 1902 
Winifred Mary Harrison        Wolstanton    6b   150

But there is a birth for a Winifred May P in New Forest, so also for consideration:
Births June quarter  1900   
 Winifred May P Harrison        N. Forest    2b   689

There is a birth for an Alastair Murray in Edinburgh in 1920 - worth following up?
