Thanks Rambler
The information you have given me has confirmed the information that i had, but it has now given me a brother that i did not know he had, which has given me a lead to follow to perhaps find Leonards family.
It is so hard to find any information, as they died so young, with most of them not having family other than their parents.
Thanks again

There's a good chance you could find some cousins (or their descendants): on the 1901 census, Lionel's father Oscar has 6 brothers and sisters, and mother Florence also has 6 siblings.  Do you want the census info?

Hi Rambler
The information you have given me is great, it has given me some thing to go at.
I think i will start and look for the marriage of his possible brother Leonard O Chell b sept 1920 see if that gives me some leads first.
You have been a great help

Hi
I have just read your inquiry about Lionel Hawkins Chell, he was my fathers cousin, I have some information about him and his family, I also have a link to a photo of his headstone in Holland which is on the Flickr website. I also have a link to the photo of William Seabridge's headstone.
This information was emailed to another lady who said William Seabridge was her uncle, maybe she is related to you, she posted a message on an ExRAF information site.
Lionel's brother was Leonard (now deceased)and loved in Worcester, his sister Margaret still lives in Stourport, as I still do

Regards Britadian
