WW2 Alderson Casualties Roll of Honour

Hello Albert, I purchased a bulk lot of old black and white snapshots at the Vintage Paper show in Toronto today and amongst the snaps is one of a young man in R.A.F. uniform with the white slash in his wedge cap which I believe denoted that he was in training. Written on the reverse is the notation,"Albert George Alderson, Air Force, March 25/1941, Age 18, England, Fanny's garden." There are three other photos of the same size ( 2 1/4" x 3 1/4"). One is of what appears to be the same young man, again in R.A.F. uniform but hatless. The inscription on the reverse is in the same hand, "Albert, age 20, 1942". A third photo has another young man in R.A.F. uniform with a young boy on a bicycle wearing a school blazer. Inscription on reverse reads "Edgar (Fanny's son), Elvis, Spring of 1943". Lastly a photo of the young boy alone with inscription, "Elvis William Alderson, age 11, Dec 30th 1939". Please advise if these are of interest to you and I will be pleased to pass them on at my cost. Yours, Allan Hubbell
