Title: Falkirk obituaries.
Post by: up2you2 on Wednesday 16 September 20 05:11 BST (UK)
I would be most grateful if someone could please try and see if there were any obituaries published for the following:

William Kirk 1906-1993 and his wife Agnes Bell (nee Rae) 1905-1978

They had a son J M Kirk born 1940's - that of course may well be still alive today, so I appreciate that we can't go there.
Seemingly the last known details of him was that he was serving in the RAF in Germany, married and had a family.
Any thoughts of how I could potentially I could find out the deceased in Germany, I would be most grateful to hear about please.
Or in fact that that there is any register or records, for those that served in the RAF, but did not die in conflict.

Edit , living ?

Thank you.
Bit of a deal breaker at least for me.
A £30 administration fee is applied for each service record requested.
You need to know the person’s full name, date of birth and service number.
