I have found two medals in some family belongings. They are for S. B. Blackburn (of Coonabarabran). Pte Blackburn died in a vehicle accident in Adamstown NSW while serving in WWII. He was survived by his wife Mary Anne Blackburn (nee Annesley). My uncle lodged with a Mrs and Mrs Annesley (possibly Mary Anne's brother and sister-in-law) which is how he may have come to have them. In the National Archives there is correspondence from JR Faucett-Bailey in 1992 looking for information on Pte Blackburn but I cannot locate contact information for this person. I would love to be able to return these medals to his family.
