Re: Answers to mystery of WW2 hero.

Acting Lieutenant Commander Archibald Ronald Richardson was my uncle, only son of my maternal grandparents, A. and W.E. Richardson of Gisborne.

The UK and NZ family branches have maintained close ties through the many years since his death and we have followed these amazing developments from the beginning of their enquiries with great interest — and many e-mails!

Congratulations for presenting so well the latest twists to his story, and paying tribute to a notable Gisborne man.
