The 1939 register for the family. One closed record which probably means he/she born less than 100 years ago and their death hasn't been picked up. More siblings than you name ?

Previous thread - more siblings showing than you name

https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1358697

Shows still at Tilsley Grove 1945

some 'argument' as to whether a marriage and a passenger list is him or just coincidental

Better to stick to the same thread so helpers know what information has been previously found / discounted etc
