If this is the correct man, as he would be only 88, is he still alive, and what information have you got about him and your cousins?

Thank you patchem this is the correct person. My Uncle died on 24 March 1990. I have no information about my cousins at all but believe that at least one of them was killed by a shark attack in the 1970's. The trip back to the UK could be his honeymoon and to bring his new wife over to meet his parents and siblings so he could have been married in early 52 or late 51. The trees that he is in are my Aunty and cousins
