Maybe getting the marriage cert then for Michael would be the way to go .then you will have his age at marriage and can work backwards |

hi shirley, her mum wasnt married to him, but he was married before to a lady called jane but we have no info on her apart from they had 4 children in the 70s i think, but we dont know if they were married in england south africa or austraila as he spent time living in those places. |

This was the only one that came anywhere near the right birth year (in deaths 1984-2005) so it would seem probable. I suppose you could get the cert and see who registered the death. |
