World War Two / Re: RAF Sgt Mc Garvey George A. of 455 Sqn
« on: Friday 05 September 08 14:04 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I can't say with 100 % certitude. I only have the name of George McGarvey and the address on the letter:

Roy McGarvey
13, Eveleyn Gardens
Cavehill Road
Belfast (Nothern Ireland)

Roy was perhaps the brother of George McGarvey.

I also wrote to the president of the Coleraine Rugby Football club for some information about Roy McGarvey but never received an answer!!

Greetings from Belgium

Hello,

Thanks for the information.
I'm the one who has posted the thread on the WW2 board.
It was recommended to me by another member of this forum.

Antrim / RAF Sgt McGarvey George killed in action over Belgium in 1941

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and I'm just wondering if anybody could help me to find some information about the next man or his relatives:

Royal Air Force Sgt McGarvey George A. (son of George Edward and Ellen McGarvey), serialnr 969452, killed in action over Belgium on the 7/8 of November 1941.

One of the McGarveys wrote a letter to the Belgian autorities in 1945 and asked them for a picture of the grave of George McGarvey who was at that time buried in the Allied Cemetry of the air base of Saint-Trond, Belgium.
Here is the address (1945) of the family member who asked the picture:

Roy McGarvey
13, Eveleyn Gardens
Cavehill Road
Belfast (Nothern Ireland)

RAF Sgt Mc Garvey George was transfered to the British Military Cemetry of Heverlee (Belgium) after the war.

Can somebody help me?

Thanks and greetings from Belgium

Hello Thudders,

Many thanks for this very interesting information about the Mc Garveys.
I'll try it and hope that someone can help me to find out more about the family.

Hello Thudders,

Thank you very much for this information. I know the cemetry of Heverlee very well....it's about +/- 25 minutes from the place where I live.
I think I'll try to write to the embassy and ask them if they can help me to trace anyone of the Mc Garvey family.
Greetings from Belgium

Hello Nanny Jan,

Yes, you're right. He was 20 years old when he died.

I've found a copy of a letter addressed to Mr Roy Mc Garvey in 1945 and supposed that it was his father. The copy is an answer to Roy Mc Garvey's question about a picture of the grave of RAF Sgt Mc Garvey George.
So he was certainly family of the dead airman.
Regards,

Alex
