I'm seeking any information about an air crash the occured on 6 June
1958 in Victoria. At least one person died in the crash.

If anyone could point me to any information, I would appreciate it.

Thanks...

The first place to start would be newspapers of the time.
Check out the National Library of Australia and see if they have the
newspapers online or on microfilm - they should have them.
Cheers

I will certainly do that.

But I was really after some facts, not journo scribble.

The only Australian accident reported by Lloyds of London on that date was a
Piper PA-22 VH-RVP which crashed at, or near, Melbourne. The Melbourne daily
(The Age ?) would be the place I would start.
