Tracing lost aircrew

Hi
I am new to the forum, and hope someone can help.
I am trying to trace James(Trev) Cope, who married my mother in1942. My mother told me he was a Flight Engineer on Lancasters in 44 Sqd. I was told he was reported MIA whilst on a raid over southern Germany. I believe his name is recorded in the Lincoln Cathedral book of rememberance. I have contacted RAF museum, who have no record, Commonwealth War Graves have no record, yet my mother visited a site in Northern Italy which records the crash and lists those who perished. With the Anniversary of Bomber Command nearing I am hoping to trace some details... can anyone assist?
