Their marriage certificate would hopefully give his father's name to enable you to find him on earlier census returns.

Hi all i'm back again , this time I need to know how to find certain relatives records of death as I am finding it very frustrating trying to nail this one. Where can I search for this information as I have already looked in the section for deaths.
I also need to know the best place for information on relatives after the 1911 census.
I hope some of you will have the answer to these questions and I await any response eagerly.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark.
What site are you using for births, marriages & deaths? Freebmd is the best one - free as the name suggests!:

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

You can see Louis' birth thus:

Births Mar 1910 (>99%)
SUMMERS Louis Aston 6d 219

And I would suggest?

Deaths Dec 1918 (>99%)
Summers Louis 8 Aston 6d 755

This might be Leonard 1955 - there are a few Leonard Summers around, but most have a middle name. He is living with a Winifred M. Summers and Leonard Summers junior.

1921 won't be released until 2022. Electoral Roles are updated annually, but only certain ones are available on line. You can search current and older ones at the local library.
