If you have good reason for thinking that your father died in 1975, you could look up the death registration on Ancestry, indexes are FREE to search, just register. After 1969, birthdates are shown on the death index so you could hopefully find the correct entry. You could then send for a certificate. The address and that of the informant will give you an area to work on and electoral lists could be checked for that address for other people with the same surname., in later years. Gwyn
