V(Z)/LG1 and 27.9.40

Good afternoon: I have been looking into the Zerstorer action on the morning of 27.9.40 in which V(Z)/LG1 suffered very heavy losses. While the bulk of the action is well known, I have a few questions I was hoping someone could help with:
1) The 10 Bf110's V(Z)/LG1 were accompanied on this mission by 13 Bf110's of Stab,II and III/ZG76. Does anyone know if any claims were made by these units? The Woods list does not show any for II/ZG76. What about Stab and III/ZG76? After screening RAF losses for this time frame (1015-1045 German time) I found potentially(?) 5 lost, 4 forcelanded and 3 damaged that may have involved bf110's.
2) While Eimansbergers work details very clearly the V(Z)/LG1 crews involved this date, both the Woods list and Taghons work on LG1 show victory claims, among others, by Gefr. Max(?) Weniger and a Gefr. (first name?) Brendel, neither of which I can find any evidence that they flew that day.
Any comments on these, or any further information anyone may be willing to share would be most welcome. Regards. Dean
