I would like some help to see if there is an obituary out there for Leslie Phillips .
Leslie Phillips was killed in an air accident on 7th August 1939 at beachy head, He was one of 4 killed in the accident.
I have some information on whom I believe is his family but have no proof that I have the same person.

What I have. Leslie was born to Fred Phillips & Edna Phillips Née Sinkinson, Leslie was born 1920 Oldham, on 25th October 1925 Fred, Edna, Leslie & sister Joyce emigrated from Liverpool to Quebec,

Leslie was in the Canadian Scottish Regiment for 3 years

Leslie left Canada in Feb 1938 to Enlist

I need to prove that it is the same person please.

Many Thanks
