Looking for Sergeant K J Hamilton 100 Sqdn RAFVR

I wonder if anyone can help me with research on my cousin who was shot down and killed during a bomber raid over southern Germany in WW2. I have visited his grave and was able to take photographs to show his mother some years before she died. His father had died many years previously.

The details that I have, mainly from the CWGC website are

Name Kenneth James Hamilton
Rank Sergeant (Air Gunner)
Nationality UK
Service No. 1806460
Regiment Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve
Unit 100 Squadron believed based at Grimsby in Lincolnshire
Date of Death 12th September 1944 - age unknown
At rest in Durnbach War Cemetery, Bad Tolz, Bayern

Any help or pointers to information would be most appreciated.

Nikki,

I doubt that this person could be your relative as to the best of my knowledge he was not married and was killed at a very young age.

 

He was killed at a very young age, actually while my nan was pregnant with my dad (born 26/4/45) David Kenneth Hamilton, I have always known we have family in Canada do please if I am right contact me at nikkih738@hotmail.co.ukI'm trying so hard to find out about him as my dad has died & I'm the only one left who cares. Waiting in anticipation N. Hamilton x

 

Kenny was my Uncle. His brother Maurice is my dad and is still alive, we may be able to help with information about Kenny but as you all know he did have a very short life. You can contact me on earthhealer19@yahoo.co.uk
