FW-190 claim

Can anyone help me with information on a FW-190 claimed by my Father, Lt Cecil Manning of the 4th FG on Feb 10, 1944? 1115 hrs, 10-20 miles SW of Hanover. This is all the information I have. Anymore will be greatly appreciated. My email is robertrmanning@yahoo.com. Thanks.

Re: FW-190 claim

Think JG1 was involved.
If the given direction- West- is correct:
a) Uffz. Helmut Stiegler, 4./JG1, Fw190A, belly landing after contact with the enemy
25km south of Diepholz.
or
b) Lt. Rudolf Kasischke, 4./JG1, Fw190A-7 "white two", KIA, dogfight with USAAF-
fighters NO of Rheine.
