Hi Murray. Do you have any names of person/s who may have been on the plane. Were there casualties? If so- a search of the Provincial Archive Vital Events Index : Marriage 1859 - 1929 - Birth: 1872 - 1903 - Death: 1872 - 1984.

There are Volunteers at the Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness British Columbia.
