Correction -

The birth I thought was the right one - isn't!

The parents married in Manchester in 1957, and the father wasn't Alfred.

Just for ref other helpers I've made a suggestion on a different birth to the one mentioned, because of the mother's maiden name and the birth being reg in both names, and tying in with a middle initial. Could be something...or nothing :-) :-)

There is a work-around the freeelectoralroll site to check the years of occupancy. Obviously you click on the 'details' (or what ever it's called) button. If it gives an approx. age, they lived there prior to and at least 2002.

If you copy the post code, paste it into the search bar on 192.com along with the name, the FREE result tells you which years they were on the commercial ER from 2002 and the names of the other eligible voters.

If I've deduced the right birth record , there's someone of that name at a Manchester address here:

I don't know how up to date it is, or whether he's the right person, as I don't have a subscription to the site to check the details.

I can't give the son's name only by pm as he could still be alive..

My cousin is Alfred Higginbottom born 1927 (died 2006)but he his son was born
1957 Manchester.

If someone would be so kind as to pm me for cousin's sons details.

What I need is a current address for him.

Thanks in Advance
Sue
