My mum Dorothea Rourke (nee Merrill) holds the hand of my brother James while also holding her niece Elizabeth.
Hi, I am looking for relatives of Sergeant George Merrill who was shot down on 2nd December 1943 over Germany. I believe Dorothea Rourke was his sister and George Merrill is my grandfather.
