I am trying to find out more about my uncle Alfred who was a Warrant Officer at RAF Padgate. He died as a result of a Road traffic Accident in March 1943. He is shown on the CWGC site and I have a copy of his Death Certifcate. He is buried in the Christ Church Graveyard, Padgate. I managed to visit it and when I moved away some stuff from the base of the Headstone was surprised to find that I had had an Aunt as well! I have her Death Cert. which shows that they had at least one son and as I have been unable to find him, I feel a bit nervous in claiming that I am Alfred's next of kin in order to get his Service Records. The problem is compounded by the fact that RAF Padgate seems to have been a Training Station with a constantly changing population, although I feel pretty certain that as a WO, Alfred was there for some time. So, any help on Alfred and Padgate would be very much appreciated.

As a p.s., My Aunt's Death Certificate gives her a different Maiden Name than that on her Marriage Certificate: it is the same person as she is shown as Alfred's widow.
