    1. [ NB ] John REID b. in Fredericton d. 1945 in England

    3. Hi List! There is an interesting article that was published in the Telegraph Journal on Monday July 13th. It is a story about a lady in England who recently discovered remnants of a Lancaster plane that crashed during WW2. She has worked to find descendants of the 7 deceased men (5 British and 2 Canadian Citizens). One of the deceased was John Reid of Fredericton. The article reads in part... Reid was 20 when he was killed. He was born in Stanley to James Henry and Mary Wilhemina Reid (nee Fullerton). He attended Smyth Street school from 1929-38, then Fredericton High School from 1938-42. It appears he married on Jan. 25, 1943 to a Gladys MacDonald and they had a daughter, Lorna Marie, later that year. His widow seems to have married again, becoming a Mrs. Brewer. Further information can be found at http://telegraphjournal.canadaeast.com/front/article/726757 There is a picture of Mr Reid on the web page as well. She is hoping to find people related to Mr. Reid.
