fox20thc Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Can anyone help me. I am doing some family research and have been told that a relative of mine was killed 09.12.1955, when a plane crashed into Lodgemoor Hospital. Does anyone know anything about this or can they point me in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carriewarr Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 You'll find some information on this thread: http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10336&perpage=15&highlight=lodge%20moor%20hospital&pagenumber=2 I should imagine that the local news papers from the day are also worth a look. Cheers, Carrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasman Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 hi hte aicraft in question was american the pilot got in difficulties out over the moors he pointed the aircraft towards the ground and ejected when the the aicraft became uncontrollable, has he descended by parachute the aircraft now minus its pilot levelled out and flew on it's own before crashing into the Lodge Moor hospital it hit one of the wards I'm not sure but I think a nurse and a couple of patients were killed I have a magazine article somewhere about the story. You could try the Sheffield star or the city library for details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there I don't know if you have seen my message but I must also be a relative of yours as Elsie Murdoch was my Grandma, my mother's mother. My cousins Lisa and Iain Murdoch are also cousins of yours as their father was my Uncle. Would you like to get in touch with us? ---------- Post added 02-11-2017 at 05:35 ---------- Can anyone help me.

Hopefully you will see this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
