Re: 418 Squadron RCAF - Mosquito HJ82225 lost on 25 JUL-1943

Hello and welcome, and a very neat way of linking your mother's name and the crash area.....
I don't know for sure, but I believe the time would have been given by reliable sources, such as locals, or perhaps something as simple as the watches worn by the crew...
One location that has been given is Lijnden (Hoofdweg 152) which I presume is the house number in Hoofdweg???
How interesting if there is a link to Anne Frank noting that crash in her diary.
We tend to forget that she was aware of what was going on around, not just trapped indoors....
No wonder you want to find out if it is one and the same.. Good luck!!
