Note... Ronald Fairclough is the reason why I set up this web site. It took quite a number of hours over two days to find Ronald's grave as he is buried in a family grave that has become very dilapidated and damaged with time. Looking down at his grave I thought to myself, at the going down of the sun and in the morning, whose going to remember you?!!
A relative of Ronald Faiclough who lives in Guernsey, Jill Bray, on seeing the above photo's of PO. Ronald Faiclough's grave as now had the grave totally refurbished and the following photo's show it as it is now.
Ronald Faiclough's crew.
Ronald is sat front row, 2nd from the right. The names of the other men are unknown but they could be the other crew members that died with Ronald on the same operation. The Lancaster bomber that Ronald was killed in was EM-A (LL902) of 207 Squadron RAF. http://www.lancastered627.shaunmcguire.co.uk/Lancaster%20LL902.htm
