You would need to search electoral rolls at the nearest Main Library to the area.

Is the the address you know about or are you looking for a further address?

If you are trying to find them now (If still living) you need to use 192.com

the person i am trying to find has passed away now, and by confirming the address as his i can confirm that he is the person i am looking for, if he is, then i know that he still has sons that are allive and they have family too, and may be totally unaware of the reason i am searching

Have you got his death cert? is the address from there? Maybe the informant will be a clue

Have you tried asking the staff at the archives to look for you? If you explain something of your difficulty I am sure they will be willing to help. There may be a charge, but I can see this is important to you so would be worth it.
