Sure that your uncle was Jack and not Joseph? Seems odd to have 2 sons called John and Jack. Jack was usually a nickname for John years ago.

Anyway, looks like your dad was born 1921, making Joseph a sibling.

Some dates, even rough estimates, would be useful.

If you look on

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com

for your father's birth registration, providing it was between late 1911 and the late 1930's, you should find his mother's maiden surname.

roughly when was he born or when anybody was born may help

???
