I was a VSO volunteer in Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador in 1969-70 and was invited back out to the Town's Coming Home Celebrations in July 2002. I discovered in The Public Record Office, Kew, West London (now known as The National Archives, official archive of the UK government) the first release in 1996-1998 of Open Papers available in the public domain about The Public Enquiry into the Affairs of The Labrador Development Company Limited held in St. John’s Newfoundland 1945 regarding logging operations in Port Hope Simpson, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada circa 1934-1946 pertinent to the two unsolved deaths 3 February 1940 of Arthur Eric Williams, eldest son of the Owner, John Osborn Williams and Erica D'Anitoff Williams, Eric's infant daughter. By August 2002, certain facts had been firmly established by my Independent Research in relation to the deaths which were brought to the attention of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, R.C.M.P. Major Crimes Unit, Gander, Newfoundland, Canada who decided to open-up their own investigation into what had really happened. This action by the R.C.M.P was the first time in 62 years that the unsolved case files had been located under the jurisdiction of the Department of Justice Canada instead of being kept under the former Natural Resources Canada and Newfoundland Rangers Force.
