Just a reminder to everybody that the Commonwealth War Graves site doesn't just include military personnel but also many civilians killed in the bombing. Information often includes the names of next of kin, addresses, etc. I found a woman on there yesterday with a familiar surname and when I clicked on to it found that her husband was in my tree.
