Alfred Victor Blenkiron

Sadly, post-war newspaper articles indicate marital and financial problems led to a premature death for Alfred Victor Blenkiron. He was found dead in his hotel room in Coulsdon, Surrey on Saturday morning, 20 March 1920.

The Western Times, Devon, England, Friday, 23 May 1919, page 11

Aberdeen Daily Journal, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, Wednesday, 24 March 1920, page 6

Sad end to a gallant and experienced WW1 airfighter.
