Any German NF-claims on Lancs over Spessart-area?

Gents,

for about slightly more than one year i am searching for the reason for the crash of two RCAF Lancasters in the close vicinity of Pfaffenhausen, happend evening 16th January 1945.
After war report of RCAF investigation depends on interrogation of local eyewitnesses and turns out that the Lancs went down due to mid air-colission. It is said that no German NF activities in the area had been taken place. What makes me suspicious is the point that the crash of the second Lanc is mentioned as about 20 minutes later than the first one occurred. Both bombers hitted the ground only in a distance of aprox. 1.5 km.
Possibly anyone has nonetheless any German NF-claims between 21.00 and 22.00 hrs. in the mentioned region?
If this might be of any help, please crosscheck http://www.lostaircraft.com/database...viewentry&e=58
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

y/f
Norbert

P.S.: Thanks again for all the highly interesting documents and pics Annie und Nicolas Legrand had handed over to me for my attempt to research this incident.
