May Blitz victim, 3 May 1941

[daggers]

I have a note of a family memorial at Allerton Cemetery naming two brothers of a Jones family. One, Arthur, died in Germany after the end of WW2 but is remembered by the War Graves Commission. The other, Jack, is recorded on the family stone as having been killed by enemy action on 3 May 1941.

The CWGC have changed their database and I have been unable to find this second name which should appear as a civilian casualty, and I would be grateful if anyone who has the time and skill could find the entry and note the details.

Most of the blitz victims were buried at Anfield.
As it is a civilian casualty I have not put this in the Military section.
Thank you

Is this him? Death recorded as 2 May but as the raids were at night the date on the death certificate may be the next day:

"John Jones, aged 43, firewatcher. Husband of Elizabeth A. Jones, of 16 Hodder Street, Kirkdale. Died at 75 Norfolk Street."

Thanks to you both. All those details correspond to the Allerton memorial, so I am happy that we have the right family.
Case closed!
