Carolyn HALE BRUCE, Wed, Nov 6 03:26:47 1996
My first cousin, Charles Lewis HALE, Jr., b. 1917, Roanoke, VA, d. Apr 1946, Yolo Co., CA, in the crash of the plane he was piloting. He m. in AZ in the early 1940s, had a son, and then divorced. Am trying to find the son, whose name I do not know. Nor do I know the name of the mother. Nor do I know where they were married other than "Arizona." I realize this is a needle in a haystack proposition, but would like to find son, if possible. Charles HALE was a captain in the US Army Air Corps during WWII and trained pilots. He had separated from the service and was on "terminal leave" in Apr of 1946 when the plane he had just taken off inexplicably lost power and crashed into a shop building at Borges Air Port and burned. His parents were Charles Lewis HALE, Sr., b. Franklin Co VA, ca 1886 and Ina THOMAS HALE, b. Lynchburg, VA. Any help appreciated. Carolyn HALE BRUCE in VA
